Coming into this game, Sociedad is from a 3-2 win against Granada, while Cadiz had a 2-0 win against Atletico. Moreover, Sociedad are currently at the sixth of the La Liga league table, having 43 points in their campaign. Fortunately, Sociedad assured their spots in the Europa Conference League, but are still aiming to earn more wins. Meanwhile, it is the other way around for Cadiz, who are at the 18th with just 22 points. Cadiz are now hoping to get as many wins they can, as they are currently at the drop zone. The meeting between these two teams is on March 16, 2024, at 4:00 AM (GMT+8).
Real Sociedad
Real Sociedad, currently in sixth place in the league table, faced a four-game losing run before their match against Granada. However, Robin Le Normand scored in the 80th minute and Andre Silva scored in the 85th minute, securing the team’s second win in their last 11 matches. Real Sociedad, led by Imanol Alguacil, lost in the Copa del Rey semi-finals and was eliminated by Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. Their league form has been disappointing, with only two wins in their last seven matches. The Basque team now has only the league to focus on in the final months of the campaign, aiming to improve on a disappointing home record of just 20 points from 13 matches. Real Sociedad has been impressive this season, having edged Granada to a 3-2 victory in their previous game.
Real Sociedad will be missing several players due to injury, including Arsen Zakharyan, Aritz Elustondo, Alvaro Odriozola, Martin Merquelanz, and Aihen Munoz. Takefusa Kubo is expected to return, and Umar Sadiq may replace Andre Silva at centre-forward.
Cadiz CF
Cadiz, currently in 18th place in the La Liga standings, will face Atletico Madrid in a crucial match. The team’s 2-0 victory over Atletico, with Juanmi scoring a brace, is their first in Spain’s top flight since September and their third in the league all season. The win has significantly boosted their survival hopes. Cadiz is currently in their fourth straight season at this level of football, their best run since the early 1990s. They have struggled on their travels this season, picking up just six points from 14 matches. However, they claimed a point away to Real Sociedad in the league last term and held the Basque side to a goalless draw in the reverse meeting. The away side, who stunned Atletico Madrid with a 2-0 victory, will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Cadiz’s injured players, Fede San Emeterio, Luis Hernandez, and Roger Marti, and Ivan Alejo, are unavailable. Juanmi, Maxi Gomez, and Chris Ramos and Alex Fernandez are options for change, but Pellegrino is likely to continue his current form.

Real Sociedad (2.5)
