The Txuri-Urdin side has all the quality to beat Barcelona, but Los Blaugranas seem to be unstoppable this season. Who'll come out on top?

Real Sociedad welcomes Barcelona with the goal of recovering their dominance over Los Blaugranas when playing at home.

Los Donostiarras were used to beating Barcelona to a pulp whenever both sides clashed at Anoeta, but that trend has changed in recent years. Los Blaugranas have walked away with the win in their two most recent visits to San Sebastián, including a 4-2 win back in January.

This time, Asier Garitano's men will try to give their fans something to be proud of when they host their first game of the season at Anoeta Stadium. In order to do that, the blue and white side must overcome some key absences, including those of Adnan Januzaj, Diego Llorente, Sandro Ramírez and possibly, William José.

Before the international break, Barcelona took the top of the league by storm with their 8-2 win over Huesca. This game might not be as easy as that one, but the team's winning formula could see them get a third straight win at Anoeta for the first time in decades. No changes are expected in Barcelona's XI, with Messi and Suárez ready to lead the pack.
