The Real Sociedad seeks to hit the table European Union in Slazburg after exciting start to the Champions League against Inter Milanwhich he dominated despite not being able to get past a tie.

The San Sebastian club has just signed a dream league weekwith nine points in the three games played against Getafe, Valencia and Athletic Club and with the emotional factor of winning the Basque derby played at the Reale Arena.

La Real arrives at this second day wanting to attack the home of the famous energy drink brand with an almost complete squad, since, barring a surprise, Alguacil will have the majority of the team, with the exception of Álvaro Odriozola, who continues to drag that overload on the abductor, and Kieran Tierneywho will be out for a while after the club confirmed that he suffers an injury to the hamstring muscles of his left thigh.

On the other side of the coin, reincorporation into a call for Arsen Zakharyanwhich has been in dry dock due to an illness that has hampered it in the last week.

As for the starting eleven, It doesn’t seem like Alguacil is going to rotate excessively, and it surely continues the good results that emerged in the Basque derby. The main novelty will be Aihen Muñoz, who will start at left back after Tierney’s injury. For the rest, it does not seem that Orio is going to move many pieces.

As for Salzburg, Gerhard Struber, coach of the Austrian club He has been especially concerned about how to defend Tafekusa Kubo, the Japanese midfielder who moved from Real Madrid to Real Sociedad in the summer of 2022, and who for Struber is “very unpredictable when dribbling.”

Coach He defined this Tuesday’s game as an “incredible challenge” and promised that his team will try to dominate the match: “We want to have the wheel in our hands, be in the driver’s seat and be decisive.”

He Red Bull dominates the standings in the Austrian Bundesliga, with seven wins in nine games, and comes from having beaten bottom team Lustenau 4-0 last Saturday. The Austrian team will have losses like those of Koita and Fernando and has the doubt of the Danish Mads Bidstrup.
