Real Sociedad will invite Girona to the Anoeta Stadium in a mid-table La Liga clash on Sunday. There is not much at stake for the visitors, who can no longer secure a top-10 finish. Sociedad have an outside chance of finishing eighth and earning a place in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers.
The hosts have seen a drop in form and are winless in their last six league games. They suffered a second consecutive loss last week as they fell to a 1-0 home loss to Celta Vigo on Tuesday.
Girona have been a bit inconsistent recently, with two wins and two defeats in their last five games. After a 1-0 home loss to Villarreal last week, they registered a 1-0 home triumph over Real Valladolid on Tuesday. Veteran striker Cristhian Stuani scored the match winner nine minutes after coming off the bench in the 80th minute.
