Real Sociedad is gearing up for a crucial Europa League match against Dynamo Kyiv scheduled for Thursday at the Reale Arena. The team managed by Imanol Alguacil comes into this match following a commendable victory against Girona, which places them second in La Liga. Notably, they will be without players Martin Zubimendi and Mikel Oyarzabal due to injuries. The team has included Aihen Muñoz, Sergio Gómez, Isak Öskarsson, and Jon Ander Turrientes in their squad for the match.
Dynamo Kyiv, led by Oleksandr Karavaiev, is also searching for a much-needed victory after a lukewarm start in the league, where they currently sit fifth. Karavaiev emphasized the importance of this match, stating, “We are preparing ourselves to compete at the necessary level and we are looking forward to tomorrow’s game.”
The potential starting lineup for Real Sociedad could see Kepa Arrizabalaga in goal, with a defense comprising of Zubimendi and Moya. In midfield, players like Kubo and Berchiche are expected to stand out. For Dynamo Kyiv, the first-choice twelve includes goalkeeper Georgiy Bushchan and key attackers such as Viktor Tsygankov. This match will be crucial not only for the ambitions of both teams in the Europa League but also for boosting morale ahead of the challenging next round of domestic fixtures.
