Let's all look at Osasuna - Almería! Forget the ups and downs, this fixture could be awesome!

Insights:
  • Osasuna have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Almería have the fewest clean sheets (0) away in La Liga

These teams have little in common geographically as Almería have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Osasuna form and stats

When playing at home in the La Liga, Osasuna have managed 8 wins, 1 draw and suffered 7 defeats from 16 games.

Osasuna haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 208 minutes ago. García scored that one.

The club members hope that Osasuna will fight back in this game, putting things right after the 1-2 away defeat in the Copa Del Rey fixture against Real Madrid. Midfielder Torró was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.62 (out of ten) in that game. Torró scored one goal and had 44 successful passes (of 50 total).

Heartbreak before that as Osasuna lost 0-1 at Barcelona's place.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Osasuna handle that role? We have found 7 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 6 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

Almería form and stats

There's been little loot from Almería's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 16 away games in the La Liga. Almería only have 1 win to counter their 11 defeats and 4 draws.

The club members enjoyed Almería's previous fixture versus Elche (placed 20th), a 2-1 win played at home. Embarba, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.01. Embarba scored one goal, hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 5 of 8 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Real Madrid wasn't a success with a 2-4 loss.

Almería are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 1 draw and 4 defeats. From a total of 6 matches.

Observe that 8 of this side's 10 latest league games have ended with three goals or more.

Almería have conceded 36 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Osasuna have put together a sequence of 7 consecutive games without defeat (5-2-0) when facing Almería.
