Real Madrid can end the weekend top of La Liga once again if they leave San Sebastian with all three points.
Real Sociedad are still firmly in the race for a fourth place finish with on-loan Los Blancos starlet Martin Odegaard helping to pull the strings in a magnificent season for the Basque side.
But victory for Zinedine Zidane’s side on Sunday evening will move them level on points with Barcelona, who were held to a goalless draw by third place Sevilla on Friday night.
A superior head-to-head record over Barca, courtesy of their 2-0 win over their great rivals in March, will see them move top.
Date, venue and kick-off time
Real Sociedad vs Real Madrid will be held at the Anoeta Stadium on Sunday, June 21, with kick-off scheduled for 9:00pm BST.
Prediction: Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
With six goals in their two games since the restart, Real Madrid have been clinical with Karim Benzema looking razor sharp in front of goal.
A narrow win for the away side.
