Real Sociedad host Getafe at Anoeta on 22 April 2026 in a game that looks tight on paper. With very little between them in the table, this feels like one that could go either way.
Why this match matters
These sides are right next to each other in the table, so this is about positioning as much as points. Whoever wins takes a step forward in that upper-mid-table group.
Table context
Real Sociedad come into this 7th on 42 points, with Getafe just behind on 41. There’s only a point in it, so this result has an immediate impact.
Form guide
