Real Sociedad
Real Sociedad started the season last weekend with a 1-1 draw against Real Valladolid. The home side’s manager Imanol Alguacil had a limited squad on Day 1 as several players tested positive for COVID-19. One of those players was David Silva, who signed from Manchester City on a free transfer of the season. Silva returned to training this week. Reports from Spain indicate that Silva is fighting for a place in Aguacilo’s team on Sunday. Silva is a great reinforcement, the master of football that will bring a lot to the team. Striker Willian Jose was left out of the squad against Real Valladolid also due to a positive COVID-19 test. The striker could return to the team this weekend. However, reports from London claim that Jose Mourinho and Tottenham Hotspur have approached Real Sociedad about signing Jose, for several seasons, they have been interested in him. Former Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Odegaard has received much praise from manager Zidane. He could start against his former team this weekend. He played great last season and scored a lot of important goals.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid, on the other hand, did not play in the opening in La Liga. Los Blancos was given an additional week to prepare for the campaign after playing the Champions League in August. Zinedine Zidane’s team is now ready to start the season and defend the La Liga title. They had plenty of time to rest. Sergio Ramos is a real captain and team leader, he scored 11 goals in all competitions last season, and he has excellent physical predispositions. Eden Hazard has been widely criticized and has been looking for his proper form for a long time. The Belgian international was overweight, and injuries have significantly affected his displays. However, Hazard is one of Zidane’s favorite players and will show why he came to the biggest club.
