The figures between the two teams are overwhelming: in 169 meetings, Real Madrid has 93 victories, 42 draws and 33 defeats. The latest meeting took place on May 24, when “Los Blancos” won Santiago Bernabeu, with a double of Mbappe.

But the visit to San Sebastian has never been easy and that is why Xabi Alonso will align the best team available.

They are the best on the transition, we will have to counteract and limit their attacks, then create our own opportunities. Xabi changed things to Madrid. They will have more ball, they are more combinable.

Aggression after losing the ball, the level of the collective. Madrid sinks you in the opposing half and also attacks the space very well. Real is one of the best teams in the world, but we play at home and we have the public on our side. We need to improve what we noticed is missing.

– Sergio Francisco, Real Sociedad coach

The matches played on the anoet are always difficult, against a powerful opponent. Everyone is ok, we have no injured or problem players. We can hardly wait to return to the field after the international break. We are in good shape before the next match, now we have matches every three days and we need everyone to shoot in the same direction.

We want to be successful. We intend to manage everything well, taking into account the football and human qualities of the players. We want everyone to feel part of the team. We enter a difficult time of the season!

– Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid coach
