Celta Vigo come into the match having recorded a good 3-0 win at Getafe on the weekend. Celta Vigo opened the scoring 10 minutes into the second half and doubled their advantage just 3 minutes later.
Getafe were then reduced to ten men and Celta Vigo used the extra space to score a third goal before the hosts had another player dismissed in the closing stages.
It was an important victory for Celta Vigo ahead of this match as they had lost each of their previous 2 games. The defeats came away at Elche and home against Sevilla.

Celta Vigo have also failed to score more than a single goal in each of their 5 most recent La Liga fixtures on home soil.
Real Sociedad make the trip to the Estadio de Balaídos on the back of a 2-2 draw at defending champions, Atletico Madrid.
Despite the point being a good return for Real Sociedad, they will feel as though they should have taken maximum points having opened a 2-0 lead just after half-time. However, Atletico Madrid fought back in the second half and scored two goals in the space of 16 minutes to claim a draw.

Real Sociedad are hopeful the trio of Alex Sola, Diego Rico Salguero, and Nacho Monreal will be available soon but this game may come too early. Martín Zubimendi and Mikel Oyarzabal are out with a hamstring and muscle injury, respectively.
Real Sociedad have made a great start to the season and this should be another 3 points, which will keep them at the top of the table. Celta Vigo have not been good in attack when playing at home in recent matches and Real Sociedad could keep a clean sheet on their way to victory.
