Match Facts:
Real Sociedad (5th, 41 pts):
- The Basque side head into the game on flying form, having only dropped a single point at Anoeta in the last five months of the competition.
- Eusebio Sacristan oversees his 50th game as a manager in LaLiga Santander, having produced 24 victories, eight draws and 17 defeats (a 48.9% win ratio).
Villarreal CF (6th, 36 pts):
- Villarreal are seeking redemption in the wake of the 4-0 drubbing away to AS Roma in the first leg of the Europa League round of 32. They will be determined to find some solace by closing the gap on the Basque outfit.
