Osasuna form and stats

Osasuna have collected 7 points from their La Liga home games so far after 2-1-3. Osasuna has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager J. Arrasate Elustondo and the players.

It's back home for Osasuna, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Tomares away with the result 6-0. Facundo Roncaglia, Kike Barja (2), Jonathan Calleri, Enric Gallego and Kike Saverio found the net in that victory. A La Liga defeat was the result before that one, 2-3 away at Real Valladolid.

As mentioned above, Osasuna "killed" Tomares in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Osasuna as they are travelling to their away game against Elche in the La Liga. That match is three days after this one.

The Osasuna fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Osasuna defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Villarreal form and stats

The visitors are W1-D4-L1 on the road this term. That's in the La Liga. Things are running smoothly for Villarreal who hasn't tasted defeat in their last ten matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Barcelona. Two points from the last two away games for Villarreal, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

It's the second away game in a row for Villarreal, but there's smiles all around after the 6-0 victory versus Leioa in the Copa Del Rey last time out. A 1-1 draw at Real Betis's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, Villarreal was the only team on the pitch versus Leioa in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.

A new game in only three days for Villarreal, the La Liga home match versus Athletic Club. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Villarreal have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Osasuna won three games, one match ended with a draw and Villarreal has six wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: eight / two
