Real Sociedad Form and Squad
Matarazzo has instilled in Real Sociedad a bright, combinational style that has borne fruit not only in the cup but also in the league. At the Anoeta Stadium the home side play on the front foot: 32 goals scored in 16 home rounds — the fifth-best tally in the league. In 2026 the team have not yet lost at the new arena. The main problem for the hosts now is emotional and physical burnout after the final, as well as serious personnel losses. The absence of Zubeldia at centre-back and Gomez in creation will force the coach to resort to rotation.
Key numbers for Real Sociedad:
On average, Real Sociedad win 5.9 corners per match (the fifth-best figure in La Liga).
The Basque club concede more than two goals in five of their last eight league matches.
The average number of goals at the Anoeta Stadium is exactly two per game.
In six of their last seven home matches, Matarazzo’s team score in the first half.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Alex Remiro — Jon Aramburu, Duje Caleta-Car, Jon Martin, Aihen Munoz — Takefusa Kubo, Jon Gorrotxategi, Carlos Soler, Pablo Marin — Brais Mendez, Orri Oskarsson
Unavailable: Igor Zubeldia, Alvaro Odriozola, Goncalo Guedes (injuries), Sergio Gomez (suspension)
Getafe Form and Squad
Getafe have surprised this season with their transformation. The team have become much bolder going forward — six goals in the last five rounds. Away from home the situation is quite good: only two defeats in the new year across seven matches and goals scored in five of them. However, the visitors have also kept just two clean sheets over this period. Before their trip to San Sebastian the guests have a hole in defence — because of the suspensions of Duarte and Romero they will have to reshuffle the back line, which could prove fatal against Real Sociedad’s powerful attack.
Key numbers for Getafe:
Getafe lead La Liga in yellow cards with 88.
In six of the last seven matches involving the Madrid club, fewer than three goals have been scored.
Bordalas’s team have conceded fewer than two goals in seven consecutive away matches.
Probable lineup (5-3-2): David Soria — Kiko Femenia, Abdel Abqar, Djene Dakonam, Sebastian Boselli, Juan Iglesias — Adrian Liso, Mauro Arambarri, Luis Milla — Luis Vazquez, Martin Satriano
Unavailable: Borja Mayoral, Juanmi (injuries), Domingos Duarte, Zaid Romero (suspensions)
