Alejandro Remiro - Concedes four against Real Madrid Remiro conceded four goals and made four saves during Saturday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Remiro had kept two straight clean sheets but also conceded four goals to Athletic in the derby two weeks ago. As a result, Remiro has decent defensive support but the overall team isn't strong enough against top opponents at the moment. He'll next face Deportivo Alaves, which have scored the fewest goals in La Liga.

Illarramendi - Starts in loss Illarramendi made six clearances and two interceptions during Saturday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Illarramendi has started in two of the last three matches and may be finally fit after barely playing over the past few seasons due to a variety of injury issues. It will be interesting to see if he gets another start in the derby against Deportivo Alaves, which have conceded the third-most goals in La Liga.

Jon Pacheco - Starts in loss Pacheco made five clearances during the first half of Saturday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Pacheco has started three straight league matches even with most of the available center-backs fit enough to play. As he was pulled at halftime of Saturday's loss, he may not be ready to face the top sides, but he could stick around against Deportivo Alaves, which have now scored the fewest goals in La Liga.

Alexander Isak - Quiet in loss Isak failed to take a shot in 80 minutes of Saturday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Isak is starting to get to the point where he's benched even without having any injury issues, though he hasn't scored in his last seven league matches and could be starting to feel the pressure. His next match would be a good time to break the streak against Deportivo Alaves, which have conceded the third-most goals in La Liga.

Mikel Oyarzabal - Scores pen in win Oyarzabal scored one penalty goal from one shot during Saturday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Oyarzabal found the net for the first time in four league matches and is now one goal closer to reaching 10 for the fifth straight season. Even with the loss, he'll next face Deportivo Alaves, which have conceded the third-most goals in La Liga.

Rafinha - Makes bench Saturday Rafinha (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact Rafinha is available again after missing the last two matches with a thigh issue. He's moved in and out of the starting XI when healthy and figures to continue that role the rest of the way, though he's made the score-sheet just once this season.

Joseba Zaldua - Starting against Real Madrid Zaldua (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact Zaldua has been out the last couple weeks with an injury, but he's back in the starting XI Saturday in a huge spot. While he's had some positive performances this season, it's unlikely he'll get forward much against Real Madrid.

Mikel Oyarzabal - Creates five chances in win Oyarzabal took two shots and created five chances in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca. He also made a clearance, two interceptions and won one of one tackles in the match.

Impact Oyarzabal was very dangerous against Mallorca as he put in one of his better performances of 2022 thus far on Wednesday. He's gone three La Liga appearances without scoring however, and he will want to end that drought Saturday against Real Madrid, which have conceded just 20 goals in 26 matches this season.

Alexander Sorloth - Takes two shots against Mallorca Sorloth took two shots and created a chance in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca. He also won three of four tackles in the match.

Impact Sorloth was back in the starting lineup over Alexander Isak on Wednesday, and he put in a solid shift with a good defensive effort. Isak will likely be back at the weekend against Real Madrid, but Sorloth is proving a capable backup striker, even if he only has one goal in La Liga this season.

Robin Le Normand - Keeps clean sheet in win Le Normand made two blocks, five clearances and two interceptions in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca. He also took two shots and won two of two tackles in the match.

Impact Le Normand was excellent defensively against Mallorca as his side recorded its sixth clean sheet in its last seven La Liga games on Wednesday. He'll likely have a tougher time Saturday against Real Madrid, which lead the league in scoring with 52 goals in 26 matches this season.

Impact Remiro kept a second consecutive clean sheet on Wednesday, and his sixth in Sociedad's last seven La Liga games dating back to early January. He will face a much tougher test Saturday against top-of-the-table Real Madrid, which have scored 52 goals in 26 matches this season.

Mikel Merino - Scores goal, assist against Mallorca Merino scored a goal and recorded an assist in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca. He took three shots and created three chances overall in the match, and he also had three c...

Impact Merino was excellent on both sides of the field on Wednesday, setting up David Silva's opening goal before scoring from a corner kick routine himself. He was subbed out in the 85th minute because he's playing through a toe injury at the moment, but you wouldn't be able to tell based off of this performance. He looks like he'll be good to go against Real Madrid at the weekend.

David Silva - Scores goal against Mallorca Silva scored a goal and created a chance in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca. He also made a clearance and won one of one tackles in the match.

Impact Silva finally scored his first goal of the season, opening up the scoring Wednesday off a through ball from Mikel Merino. The 36-year-old has started in 15 of Sociedad's 26 La Liga matches, but somehow this was his first direct goal involvement since August. On Saturday is a big clash against league leaders Real Madrid.
