What channel is Barcelona vs Real Sociedad? Live streaming details, TV channel, Kick off time and team news

The 2020-21 edition of La Liga is back in action with a set of mid-week fixtures this week as Barcelona take on Real Sociedad at the Camp Nou on Wednesday. Barcelona have endured a miserable season so far and need to put together a string of victories before the end of the year to remain in contention for the La Liga title.

Real Sociedad have exceeded expectations in La Liga this season and have managed to retain their hold over the top spot so far. The Basque outfit has experienced a slump in recent weeks and will have to return to their best against the Catalan giants this week.

Barcelona have struggled under Ronald Koeman but have shown glimpses of their potential on a few occasions this season. The Blaugrana are currently in a lowly eighth place in the La Liga standings and will have to solve a series of issues both on and off the pitch.

Aditya is a European and international football writer at Sportskeeda, covering previews, news, post-match articles and live blogs for 5 years. During his time here, he has had the privilege of covering a press meeting during the collaboration between his favorite club Bengaluru FC and Sevilla, where he got a chance to interact with Sevilla president Jose Castro and explore the grassroots development in his city.

Aditya started following the sport after being dazzled by Ronaldinho’s silky feet at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.

The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.

Aditya is a semi-professional pianist and likes to participate in concerts and recitals when not immersed in football.
