Real Sociedad Prepares for Match Against Celta with Key Player Absences

The anticipated absences of Take Kubo, who is sidelined due to a long-term injury, and Carlos Soler, suspended following his red card against Barcelona, mark significant changes in the Real Sociedad squad ahead of their upcoming match against Celta. Meanwhile, Orri Óskarsson appears to have recovered from his recent muscular issue and is set to make his return. The team will also feature promising talents from the reserve squad: Ibai Aguirre, Job Ochieng, and Dani Díaz.

Barrenetxea and Gorrotxategi are expected to step in as substitutes for Kubo and Soler in a starting lineup that Coach Matarazzo has consistently utilized since his arrival, with adjustments made only for injuries or suspensions such as these. The remaining players likely to start are familiar faces; however, should the coach opt for a tactical shift to a five-defender formation, Odriozola would replace Barrenetxea in that scenario.

The complete list of players representing Real Sociedad in their quest for a victory that could elevate them in the standings and inspire European aspirations includes goalkeepers Remiro, Marrero, and Fraga. The field players are Aramburu, Aihen, Gorrotxategi, Zubeldia, Aritz, Barrenetxea, Turrientes, Óskarsson, Oyarzabal, Guedes, Caleta-Car, Sergio Gómez, Karrikaburu, Odriozola, Brais Méndez, Sucic, Marín, Jon Martín, Ibai Aguirre, Ochieng, and Dani Díaz.
