Real Sociedad vs Mallorca – At Reale Arena on Saturday night, Real Sociedad triumphed decisively 3-1 over Athletic Bilbao, their fierce local rivals.
For the league team led by Imanol Alguacil, it was their fourth straight victory. Since the World Cup break, Sociedad has won all five of its games across all competitions, conceding just once (in the mentioned match against Bilbao).
They are currently securely in third position in La Liga, just three points behind Real Madrid in second place, who also have a game remaining.
On Tuesday night, when they host Mallorca in the Copa del Rey’s round of 16, Alguacil’s team will be trying to continue their outstanding run of success.
Following their 1-0 loss to Osasuna on Saturday, Mallorca will enter the match in a negative frame of mind. For Javier Aguirre and his team, it was their second league defeat in the previous three games.
Although they have only managed to score 14 goals in the first 17 games of the campaign, Mallorca are currently 10th in the league standings.
Despite playing teams like Getafe and Osasuna in these outings, Aguirre’s team lost both league games they played on the road during the World Cup break without scoring a goal.
