Real Sociedad aims to uphold their impressive performance streak in La Liga as they journey to Getafe this Sunday afternoon.

The visiting team presently holds the sixth spot in the standings, maintaining a three-point advantage over the seventh-ranked Valencia. Meanwhile, Getafe occupies the 10th position, having amassed 39 points from 31 matches, marking a commendable campaign.

Getafe has clinched victory in nine encounters, drawn in 12, and suffered defeat in 10 out of their 31 league fixtures this season, accumulating a total of 39 points. This achievement positions them at the 10th spot on the table, tied with ninth-placed Villarreal.

Having secured the 15th position in the past three seasons, Getafe's performance has witnessed a significant surge this term, signifying a promising trajectory towards a top-half finish for the team.

Real Sociedad clinched the fourth spot in La Liga last season, yet they presently find themselves not embroiled in a struggle for a top-four berth, languishing 11 points adrift of Atletico Madrid, who hold fourth place.

It appears probable that the Basque contingent will be contending in the Europa League next season, albeit they cling to a mere three-point advantage over seventh-seated Valencia, with Real Betis trailing in eighth, a mere five points shy of sixth place.

Under the guidance of Imanol Alguacil, the team has surged in form during this pivotal juncture of the season, amassing 10 points from their recent quartet of encounters against Granada, Cadiz, Alaves, and Almeria.

Real Sociedad embarked on a triumphant streak with three consecutive victories over Granada, Cadiz, and Alaves, only to settle for a 2-2 draw against Almeria in their recent outing. The Basque squad had maintained a 2-1 lead until the 88th minute, when Adri Embarba netted a penalty to salvage a point for the league's bottom-dwelling side.

Similar to the situation encountered against Rayo, Getafe will encounter the absence of three players for their upcoming weekend fixture, as Jordi Martin, Domingos Duarte, and Borja Mayoral will not be available for selection.

Getafe will head into this encounter fresh off a goalless draw with Rayo Vallecano. In their past seven league games, Getafe has only managed to win one and suffer three defeats.

This season, Jose Bordalas's team has performed admirably at home, winning 28 of their 15 games in front of their home crowd. However, they will be hosting Real Sociedad, who have the fourth-best away record.

Getafe's goal in the last parts of the season will be to secure a top-half slot, which would indicate a solid season, given they are not going to be relegated and are not in the running for Europe.

Nevertheless, the metropolitan side will witness a resurgence with Carles Alena rejoining their squad after serving a suspension during the previous goalless draw.

Mason Greenwood, on loan from Manchester United, is poised to resume his role on the right flank for Getafe, although alterations could unfold behind him, with Jose Angel Carmona vying for inclusion in the lineup, while Juanmi Latasa may also emerge as an option in the attacking third.

On the opposing side, Real Sociedad grapples with the absence of Brais Mendez and Martin Merquelanz due to injury, while Carlos Fernandez awaits a last-minute fitness evaluation concerning a knee ailment.

Moreover, the Basque ensemble must navigate through the voids left by the suspended duo of Igor Zubeldia and Martin Zubimendi for their encounter in the Spanish capital.

Takefusa Kubo and Benat Turrientes are both anticipated to join the starting lineup on Sunday, while Sheraldo Becker is poised to maintain his position in the attacking third alongside Mikel Oyarzabal.
