Real Sociedad and Espanyol will lock horns at the Estadio Anoeta in round six of the Spanish La Liga on Sunday.
The Txuriurdin head into the weekend off a fine UEFA Europa League victory over Omonia Nicosia and will look to keep that run going.
Sociedad made it two wins from two in Group E of the continental competition by seeing off Omonia Nicosia 2-1 on Thursday.
They have now returned to La Liga, where they are on a two-game winless run, claiming one point from a possible six. With seven points from five games, Sociedad are 11th in the standings, three points and four places above Espanyol.
Meanwhile, Espanyol were sent crashing down to earth last time out when they lost 3-2 against ten-man Sevilla.
Before that, they had picked up their first win of the season - snapping their two-game losing streak with a 1-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao. Espanyol head into the weekend on a run of just one win in their last 11 away La Liga games, losing six and drawing four since the turn of the year.
