Real Madrid will face Real Sociedad away at the Reale Arena in a crucial La Liga match this weekend, seeking to close the gap on league leaders Barcelona. Manager Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that key players Jude Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni will miss the match due to injuries, along with Dani Ceballos, Eduardo Camavinga, and David Alaba. However, Eder Militao and Ferland Mendy have recovered from injuries, providing a boost to the squad. The match holds significant importance for Los Blancos, who have dropped points in two of their first four games, as another loss could widen the gap to Barcelona. Young talent Arda Güler is expected to play a more prominent role, potentially starting in the midfield alongside Luka Modric. The upcoming encounter is anticipated to be challenging, given Real Sociedad's historical strength at home.
