Finally a bright spot for Real Sociedad?
Opponent of Paris Saint-Germain in the round of 16 of the Champions League, the Basque club has had a very lackluster few weeks on almost all pitches before welcoming Mallorca on Tuesday in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final.
In difficulty in La Liga, where they have only had one success in five matches (2 defeats, 2 draws), Imanol Alguacil's men are also struggling in the cups.
Their 2-0 defeat at the Parc des Princes puts them in an uncomfortable position before the return leg at Anoeta on March 5.
They also couldn't get better than a 0-0 draw in the first leg against the Mallorcans, who were also struggling in the league (16th).
Javier Aguirre's players have only managed one victory in their last eight meetings (4 defeats, 3 draws), and are not favorites for this return leg on Basque soil.
The last clash between the two teams is very recent, Real having won in Mallorca on February 18 (1-2) for the 25th day of La Liga.
The match between Real Sociedad and Mallorca is scheduled to kick off at 9:30 p.m. this Tuesday, February 27.
The match will be broadcast live on La Chaîne L'Équipe.
