Real Sociedad take on Real Madrid in La Liga this weekend and the Basque side will be looking for another scalp after beating Barcelona 1-0 at the Anoeta recently.

For Real Madrid, this is a must win game. They cannot afford to drop anymore points if they want to stay in the title race. Barcelona are one point ahead of them and are unlikely to drop points in their remaining games.
