Real Sociedad will premiere its new season in Pucela. The draw for the 2020/21 season calendar saw a match between the Valladolid and the txuri urdin squad in the Nuevo José Zorrilla on the first day, to play on September 12 or 13, with a schedule yet to be determined. Those of Imanol
Sheriff will finish the campaign before Osasuna in El Sadar on May 23 of next year.
The calendar for the txuri urdin is not easy, since on the second day they will receive in Anoeta Real
Madrid, first date for whites, exempted from participating in the first due to their late competition in the Champions League. This appointment scheduled for September 19 or 20 will undoubtedly have the curiosity of the possible presence of Martin
Odegaard, which will take very little to return to what has been his home, as long as he is recovered. After the match against the Whites, the Txuri Urdin will visit the recently promoted Elche on Matchday 3 and on Matchday 4 they will wait for Valencia in an Anoeta that will not have fans until well into the season. In the 5, there will be a second consecutive appointment in the temple of Amara, against Getafe.
He derby San Mamés is scheduled for December 30 and Anoeta has been scheduled for April 4 of next year, the day that was established for the final dispute of the Copa del Rey last year that Real Sociedad and Athletic dispute . It is understood that they have set it this way so that there are no other teams involved and the two contenders can move that league derby to another date.
For its part, we will have to wait until matchday 13 for the first provincial duel against him Eibar. It will be in Anoeta on December 12 or 13.
Barça-Real, December 15-16
It should also be borne in mind that the match against Barcelona at the Camp Nou, corresponding to matchday 19, which appears on the calendar on January 20, is brought forward, as MD reported, to the weekend of 15 and 16 December, since on San Sebastian Day both the txuri urdin and the culés play their first round of the Copa del Rey, the round of 32. Those of Imanol are exempted from the first two crosses of the K.O. for his participation in the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia between January 13 and 17, 2021.
The calendar, like last season, is asymmetrical, so the order of the matches in the first round is not the same as in the second, as was the norm historically.
