Real Sociedad have a problem at home, Anoeta. Despite the large stadium built, the improved atmosphere, the increase in the number of spectators per game, the team won more away games than in Donostia. And especially in the last campaign and at the beginning of this one, it was difficult for him to give joy to his team.
Against Alavés it was the second defeat in two home games this season and it meant equaling two terrible numbers, both recorded in the relegation campaign, 06-07. On the one hand, this is the first time since then that Real have started their league journey with two home defeats. On the other hand, combining these two defeats with the one that closed last season against Atlético, Real have three consecutive defeats at home in the Liga for the first time also since the disastrous season, where they did it with two times. One to start the Liga (with four straight matches against Sevilla, Recreativo, Zaragoza and Villarreal) and another in January-February (also with four against Valencia, Athletic, Madrid and Deportivo).
Since then there have been three consecutive defeats at home twice, but never in all League games. One is included Eusebius in 2017 lost against Lleida in the Cup, against Zenit in the Europa League and against Málaga in the Liga, and another with Imanol In the same 2024, although with an asterisk, linking the two league defeats against Osasuna and Villarreal, the cup defeat on penalties against Mallorca, and the Champions League defeat against PSG that led to the exit .
