Possible nail-biting contest in Granada - Osasuna game

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Granada and Osasuna.

Granada form and stats

When playing at home in the La Liga, Granada, who have the fewest clean sheets (1) at home in La Liga, have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 10 games.

Granada are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-4 away versus Getafe. The forward Suárez edged out all the other players in that fixture and got a match rating of 7.83 out of 10. Suárez scored two goals and hit one key pass.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus FC Barcelona.

This is expected to be a close game, with Granada perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Granada as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Granada has won seven of these, drawn six and lost zero.

Granada have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes with 16 goals in 10 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Granada defense is not exactly impregnable. 15 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Osasuna form and stats

Playing away, Osasuna have won 4 games, drawn 2 and suffered 4 defeats in the La Liga this season. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Osasuna are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Osasuna, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Celta de Vigo (placed 12th). Midfield player Moncayola was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.05/10. Moncayola hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 41 successful passes (of 46 total).

Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Cadiz.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Osasuna playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were four Osasuna wins, two draws and three defeats.

Osasuna find the net regularly in their away games. 10 goals from 10 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Osasuna have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
