Girona vs Real Sociedad: Match Preview and Team News

Match Context

Girona host Real Sociedad at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi on 14 May 2026 in La Liga Regular Season - 36. Girona arrive in the relegation places in 18th with 39 points and a goal difference of -15, while Real Sociedad sit 8th on 44 points with a goal difference of -1 and are pushing for Europa League qualification.

Girona Availability

Girona face a lengthy absentee list. Juan Carlos (knee injury) is sidelined. Portu (knee injury) is sidelined. V. Vanat (injury) is sidelined. M. ter Stegen (hamstring injury) is sidelined. D. van de Beek (Achilles tendon injury) is sidelined. All five are confirmed missing, reducing depth in goal, midfield and attack.

Real Sociedad Availability

Real Sociedad also have several enforced absences. G. Guedes (toe injury) is sidelined. A. Odriozola (knee injury) is sidelined. O. Oskarsson (suspension – yellow cards) is sidelined. I. Ruperez (knee injury) is sidelined. Their key attacking reference Mikel Oyarzabal, with 15 league goals and 3 assists, is fully available.

Impact Summary

Girona’s absences mainly hit squad rotation rather than clear headline scorers, but losing D. van de Beek and Portu removes creativity and experience in advanced areas for a side with only 37 league goals. Real Sociedad, who have scored 54 times, retain their main attacking output through Oyarzabal, so despite several injuries and Oskarsson’s suspension, their forward threat remains largely intact.
