Real Sociedad vs. Real Madrid: Head-to-head record and past meetings

Real Madrid will be aiming to make it four straight wins at the start of the 2025-26 La Liga campaign when they tackle Real Sociedad on Saturday afternoon.

Xabi Alonso's side have made a perfect start to their domestic season, beating Osasuna, Real Oviedo and Mallorca to move onto nine points, which has left them at the top of the La Liga table.

Real Madrid will now be looking to move onto 12 points in La Liga before switching their attention to the Champions League, with their European opener taking place against Marseille on September 16.

Real Sociedad, meanwhile, have made an underwhelming start to the season, picking up just two points from their first three games to sit down in 16th spot.

Here, Sports Mole looks at the head-to-head record and past meetings between the two sides ahead of their meeting at Reale Arena this weekend.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 183

Real Sociedad wins: 38

Draws: 43

Real Madrid wins: 102

Given Real Madrid's status as one of the biggest clubs in world football, it is not too surprising that Los Blancos have more success than Real Sociedad across the 183 meetings between the two sides.

With that said, La Real have managed to avoid defeat in 81 of their 183 encounters, having recorded 38 victories and 43 draws against Real Madrid.

Los Blancos have netted 376 goals in this fixture, including 15 goals apiece from Cristiano Ronaldo and Santillana as the joint-leading scorers in this fixture. Meanwhile, the Basque side have netted 225 goals against Real Madrid, including 10 from forward Darko Kovacevic, who enjoyed two spells with Real Sociedad in his career.

Real Madrid have proven to be a tough team to beat in recent league meetings, having lost just one of their previous 12 La Liga games against La Real.

In fact, Los Blancos have won each of their previous four top-flight encounters, including 2-0 victories in both league games during the 2024-25 campaign, while Los Blancos also beat the Basque side 5-4 on aggregate in the semi-finals of last season's Copa del Rey.
