Real Sociedad vs Barcelona preview 

Over the past few weeks, Real Sociedad have simply capitulated in LaLiga. Imanol Alguacil's side were at the top of the Spanish top division at the end of December but have now slumped to fifth in the standings. Real Sociedad have managed only one win across 12 games in all competitions and have slipped away from the title-chasing pack amid this abysmal run of form. They head into their game against Barcelona following a 2-3 defeat against Sevilla on Saturday. 

Meanwhile, Barcelona have hit a good run of form, winning three of their last three games. The Blaugrana have climbed up to third in the LaLiga standings but are still seven points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, who have two more games in hand. Ronald Koeman's side will be hoping to maintain their good run of form and take advantage of a struggling Real Sociedad on Wednesday.
