Osasuna form and stats

Last season, Osasuna's league statistics were 11 wins, 11 draws and 16 losses, resulting in a 11th position in the La Liga. Over these 38 matches they scored 37 goals and conceded 48. Playing at home last season Osasuna managed 7-5-7 (win-draw-lost) with 21 goals and 23 conceded.

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

Osasuna have prepared for this season with five friendly games versus mixed opposition. Results from training matches should always be treated with caution, but the takeaways from these five matches are 4 victories, 0 draws and 1 losses.
