La Liga returns this weekend and will see Real Sociedad host Getafe at the Reale Arena on Sunday evening.
Real Sociedad are looking to return to top form on their league duties after enduring a poor run in La Liga over the past month. After losing all their league fixtures in December, the hosts are unbeaten in their two league outings this year with the most recent being a 1-0 win over Celta Vigo earlier this month.
The Whites and Blues sit fifth in the La Liga table with 33 points from 20 games. They will now be looking to continue the good run they have started this year on Sunday.
Getafe are in good form at the moment with three wins in their last four games, beating teams all above them in the league table, most notably Real Madrid. They beat Granada 4-2 in their last game, with January signing Borja Mayoral scoring just three minutes into his debut.
Azulones sit 16th in the league with 21 points from 21 games. They are four points away from the drop zone and will now be looking to widen that gap at the weekend.

Getafe are also in good form at the moment with three wins in their last four games. They are however winless on the road in the league this season and could therefore see defeat at the weekend.
