Last time out in the illustrious Madrid derby, Los Blancos reigned supreme over Atletico Madrid edging them by a narrow 1-0 win margin. The men in white were totally rampant throughout the game as they kept their cross-town rivals pegged back in their own half for large parts of the game.

Since leapfrogging Barcelona to the summit of the league standings, the sky seems the limit. They have now moved three points clear of the reigning champions, reiterating how excellent they have been in recent weeks.

With a Copa del Rey game against Real Sociedad on the cards, Los Meringues will be looking to replicate their outstanding league form in the league cup. If they manage to hit the mark, the visitors will surely be left shattered at the end of the ninety minutes.

Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad Team News

Handed the routine task of seeing off Segunda Division outfit Real Zaragoza in the Round-of-16 of the competition at La Romareda, Real Madrid made light work of their lowly opponents, as expected. Firing four unanswered goals past the hosts, Los Blancos dragged Los Manos to the cleaners.

Zinedine Zidane’s charges hardly broke a sweat as they breezed past Zaragoza in the league cup clash. Simply put, it was a stroll in the park for the visitors. The game saw four different players rise to the occasion for Madrid.

The hosts seem invincible at the moment and are currently sporting a stellar five-game winning streak. You cannot but wonder how much long these cluster of players will keep this run going. One thing is for sure, it will take a miracle of sorts, for Sociedad to bring that winning run to a halt this Thursday.

Real Sociedad, on the other hand, did a tidy job over tough customers Osasuna on the road in the last round of the competition. Despite being pegged back by the home side after taking the lead through an Alexander Isak strike, the visitors came roaring back after the restart.

Goals from Martin Odegaard and a second from Isak were enough to send the Whites and Blues to the quarter-finals of the competition. Handing them a fixture against La Liga giants Real Madrid, the draw proved a bit unkind to Imanol Alguacil’s charges.

However, they will be heading into this Copa del Rey clash with every intention of causing a major upset over Zidane’s men. For that, the visiting contingent will be required to turn in a performance of the highest quality.

It is worth noting that Real Sociedad have stumbled twice in their last five games on the trot and are currently sitting eighth on the log. Only goal difference separating them from a place within the top-seven mix, it goes without saying that Sociedad have enjoyed a decent season so far.

Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad Predictions

Real Madrid are in fine form at the moment and are expected to maintain their winning streak in this fixture. They are yet to taste defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu this season and are currently sporting a thirteen-game unbeaten run across all competitions on this ground.

Staging an upset against this imperious Real Madrid side at the Bernabeu will be a herculean task for the visiting contingent. However, the Whites and Blues will likely set out in a defensive manner in a bid to frustrate their counterparts.

However, Los Blancos should have enough about themselves to see off Imanol Alguacil’s side at the end of the ninety minutes, grabbing a couple of goals in the process.
