"Everything is becoming more and more even. They have been for several years and we notice that there is more equality, that any team beats any other team, which is increasingly difficult to play as an away team," Messi said.
 
"The teams have become stronger at home because they know that in order to achieve their goals they must do it well at home."This makes everything more equal and more complicated."
 
The last league meeting between Sociedad and Barcelona was on the 20th of April 2019.
