Newly crowned La Liga champions Barcelona will look to celebrate the success against familiar foes Real Sociedad. Spotify Nou Camp will wear a festive look on Saturday as the champions-elect host their fourth-placed visitors. Barcelona confirmed their first league title since 2019 with a 4-2 win over Espanyol last Sunday. Their on-field celebrations were halted by pitch invasion of Espanyol fans on that day. The team went on an open-bus parade on Monday with more than 80,000 fans celebrating their first league title since Lionel Messi's departure. As reports emerge of the talisman planning to make a comeback next season, Barcelona will look to end this season on a high. They are unbeaten all season long at Camp Nou, winning 14 and drawing three. 

Sociedad have still a lot to play for as the visitors are not yet confirmed of a top-four finish. A defeat here and a win for Villarreal earlier in the day will reduce their gap to just two points. Facing Barca doesn't help their nerves as the Basques have failed to win their last 13 La Liga matches against them. That included losing each of the last six giving jitters ahead of this trip. Yet, Sociedad are unbeaten in five matches coming into this match showing there's still light at the end of the tunnel. That would need a massive effort to materialize though, as the visitors have lost four of their last seven away league games.
