Real Sociedad Prepares for Upcoming Match Against Real Oviedo

omidbasir- Real Sociedad will return to Zubieta this Tuesday at 3:00 PM to begin preparations for their upcoming match against Real Oviedo, scheduled for Saturday at 2:00 PM. Coach Pellegrino Matarazzo is expected to have Brais Méndez available again after serving a two-match suspension. Additionally, there is a possibility that Arsen Zakharyan and Luka Sucic could return if they overcome their recent muscle issues.

Luka Sucic had begun to eclipse Brais Méndez in the attacking midfield role. In their absence, Matarazzo utilized Carlos Soler, who played slightly deeper. It remains to be seen whether the coach will retain Soler in the starting lineup or revert to either the Galician or the Croatian contingent, assuming they are confirmed fit after their respective injuries.

Regarding Zakharyan, his limited training with the group suggests that he might primarily be considered as a substitute option during the matches.

Unfortunately, Take Kubo and Ander Barrenetxea will not be available for the weekend match against Oviedo. Their return to the field at Zubieta may occur later this month, or potentially in early March, in time for the return leg of the Copa semifinals against Athletic, though there is a risk they may miss that crucial match.
