Valencia coach Ruben Baraja says they must maintain their focus when facing Real Sociedad tonight.
Los Che have surprised many with their impressive start to the season.
Baraja said, "I am only thinking about Real Sociedad. We are up against a Champions League team and one of the best sides in terms of tactics and talent. They are going to make it very difficult for us and we must have a complete game if we are to achieve victory.
"They are very potent in the final metres and we have to attack deep and have a good game defensively. There has been enough time to recover. The effort against UD Almería has to make us realise what makes us competitive: Running, sticking together, playing deep... we had some very good numbers and we are physically prepared for this match.
"Real Sociedad's model is one to follow in many things. They have been doing things very well for a long time, such as their management model, bringing young players into the first team and then having investment that makes a difference. The sports management have set out the strategy and then Imanol Alguacil has managed to get young, homegrown players to compete in the Champions League.
"We think about the team and what we want to do together in each game. Several players stayed here when they came back, to undergo treatment and do voluntary training. Commitment is very important and it makes the players ready to compete in the best way. We try to have our identity and take care of the details."
