The White and Blues are also unbeaten in their last two matches at home in La Liga having recorded one win and one draw at the Estadio de Anoeta.
"We have had opportunities to score more goals and to leave the game completely sealed," Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil said after their game against Almeria.
"We had many chances while leading 2-0, the opponents were looking to reduce the deficit and the match changed completely after half-time.
"We left the door open for them, but thanks to the work of all our players we managed to keep a clean sheet."
Meanwhile, Bilbao drew 0-0 with Real Betis away in their last match in the league which was played on December 29 and they will host CA Osasuna on January 9.
The Lions are undefeated in their last two matches in this competition having registered one draw and one victory.

The last meeting between Sociedad and Bilbao in a league match was on 2 February 2022.
