Osasuna form and stats

The season before, Osasuna's league statistics were 15 wins, 8 draws and 15 losses, resulting in 7th place in the La Liga. From these 38 matches they scored {37 goals} and let in 42. Appearing at home in the previous season Osasuna managed 11-1-7 (win-draw-lost) with {24 goals} and 21 conceded.

A strong away win for Osasuna against Celta de Vigo the last match, as García and Gómez were on target. Osasuna's victory against Celta de Vigo could easily have been with a bigger margin than 2-0 as they hit the posts three times. Defender Peña got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 8.5/10. Peña hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and won 14 of 16 duels.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Girona in a game that was won 2-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Osasuna as they have a new game in only four days, a Europa Conference League match thankfully also at home. TBC are visiting.

Athletic Club form and stats

Let's have a look at how Athletic Club performed last season in the La Liga: They landed a 8th position in the league table after playing out 14 victories, 9 draws and 15 defeats. In total they scored 47 and conceded {43 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 6 and lost 7 with 25/28 goals scored/conceded.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, the home loss versus Real Madrid with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Club goalkeeper Simón could take pride in a terrific day at work against Real Madrid, but in spite of pulling off six saves the loss could not be stopped.

Before that, Athletic Club travelled to Real Madrid and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

Head 2 Head

Osasuna have avoided a loss in the last 4 fixtures (2-2-0) facing Athletic Club.
