Key Player Returns and Absences in Real Sociedad’s Upcoming Match Against Getafe

The return of Jon Gorrotxategi and Igor Zubeldia, following their suspensions during last weekend’s match against Atlético, alongside Mikel Goti’s reintegration after previously being excluded for tactical reasons, marks the key updates in Real Sociedad’s squad ahead of their important fixture against Getafe. The team will be competing for vital points in their battle for relegation survival, notably absent is Jon Karrikaburu, who is poised for a loan move to Racing de Santander.

The pressing question is whether coach Matarazzo will reinstate Zubeldia and Gorrotxategi, who were key players prior to their suspensions, after a commendable performance against Atlético Madrid last Sunday. Alternatively, he may choose to maintain the lineup that played in their absence, which would keep Caleta-Car and Turrientes in a team that, theoretically, would not differ from the previous matchday’s setup, barring considerations for the upcoming Copa del Rey fixture on Tuesday.

The complete roster of players that Real Sociedad will rely on to secure three crucial points against Getafe includes goalkeepers Remiro, Marrero, and Arana, along with field players Aramburu, Aihen, Gorrotxategi, Zubeldia, Aritz, Barrenetxea, Turrientes, Óskarsson, Oyarzabal, Guedes, Kubo, Caleta-Car, Sergio Gómez, Carlos Soler, Odriozola, Zakharyan, Goti, Brais Méndez, Sucic, Marín, and Jon Martín.
