Celta Vigo’s Michael Krohn-Dehli is handed a debut away to an attack-minded Real Sociedad line-up.
Philippe Montanier brings in Carlos Vela and Imanol Agirretxe in attack for the Anoeta outift, shifting Antoine Griezmann to an anticipated wide-right role in a 4-2-3-1. Gorka Elustondo and Chori Castro have made way from the team that began against Barcelona last weekend.
Meanwhile, visiting Coach Paco Herrera has thrown Danish international Michael Krohn-Dehli straight into the first XI after he completed a move to the Galicians this Thursday. The attacking midfielder replaces Cristian Bustos as the only change to the line-up that began last week’s home defeat to Malaga.
