Osasuna

DDWLWL ⚖

Osasuna will be looking to improve on their last outing here after a 3-1 La Liga losing effort in their last game against Rayo Vallecano.

In that game, Osasuna managed 34% possession and 5 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. The only player to score for Osasuna was Raul García (27'). For their opponents, Rayo Vallecano got 17 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Abdul Mumin (50'), Andrei Rațiu (66') and Unai López (90') scored for Rayo Vallecano.

It has been a rare occasion in recent times where Osasuna have shown defensive steel. The reality is that Osasuna have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 11 goals on the way. That sort of pattern might not be sustained here, however.

Taking a look at their past results, Osasuna:

• are unbeaten in the league by UD Las Palmas in their last 3 games.
• are winless against UD Las Palmas in their previous 2 matches in the league.
• haven't been defeated in their previous 5 league matches at home.

UD Las Palmas

DDLDLL 📉

Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Athletic Bilbao in La Liga competition, UD Las Palmas and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

In that game, UD Las Palmas had 65% possession and 15 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. For UD Las Palmas, the goals were scored by Sandro Ramírez (58') and Álex Muñoz (83'). Athletic Bilbao had 9 attempts on goal with 4 on target. Oihan Sancet (7'), Nico Williams (30') and Aitor Paredes (76') scored for Athletic Bilbao.

The stats don’t lie, and UD Las Palmas have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 11 goals overall. At the back, UD Las Palmas have seen their frailties exposed.

Analysis of their past results shows that UD Las Palmas:

• have not registered a win against Osasuna when having played them away from home in the previous 3 matches in the league.
• are without an away win for the past 10 league games. Who knows how long it might last, too.

📰 Team News: Osasuna

Kike Barja (Cruciate ligament tear) and Iker Muñoz (Broken foot) will not be taking part for Osasuna boss Vicente Moreno.

We are thinking that Los Rojillos will probably use the 4-3-3 formation, utilising Sergio Herrera, Jesus Areso, Alejandro Catena, Enzo Boyomo, Abel Bretones, Jon Moncayola, Lucas Torro, Aimar Oroz, Ruben Garcia, Ante Budimir and Bryan Zaragoza.

📋 Team News: UD Las Palmas

There’s a good chance that UD Las Palmas will likely elect for a 4-5-1 formation by sending out Jasper Cillessen, Marvin Park, Scott McKenna, Mika Marmol, Alex Munoz, Sandro Ramirez, Javier Munoz, Kirian Rodriguez, Jose Campana, Alberto Moleiro and Oliver McBurnie.

💡 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that UD Las Palmas might well have a job on their hands to break down this Osasuna outfit who we think should manage to score & go ahead.

With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 1-0 victory for Osasuna at the conclusion of the game.

Should be an interesting one.
