After a lean run of form, Athletic Club appear to be back on track. This Saturday sees them travel to the Estadio El Sadar to take on struggling Osasuna in a La Liga match.
Athletic Club have now climbed up into 7th and will be hoping to move into the European contention spots soon, while Osasuna are down in 15th and could find themselves sucked into danger.
Thanks for the submission!
So who will come out on top in this game?
Osasuna vs Athletic Club Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Athletic Club have a solid record in away games against Osasuna. They’ve won three of their last six trips there dating back to January 2022, and have not lost a match there since May 2023.
- Osasuna suffered a defeat to Deportivo La Coruña in their most recent match, losing 2-1 despite taking the lead in the first half through Ante Budimir. They have now won just one of their last eight games, pushing them down the table after they were unbeaten in their first three.
- Athletic Club, on the other hand, overcame a tricky opponent in the form of Real Sociedad in their last game. The win has bumped them up the table towards the upper echelon, and marked their first back-to-back wins since the first week of September.
- Only three sides have scored fewer goals than Osasuna this season, and two of them – Valencia and Malaga – are currently propping up the table. Osasuna have only scored eleven goals, and they’ve also conceded five goals in a game twice this season.
- Athletic Club’s Alex Berenguer might be the man to watch in this match. He has registered seven goal involvements in ten appearances this season, with six of them coming in his last three games.
Osasuna vs Athletic Club Prediction
Athletic Club seem to have settled into a groove in their last two matches, and looked very good in their win over Real Sociedad. On paper, they have plenty of advantages over Osasuna, particularly in attack.
Osasuna are perhaps not the worst side in La Liga, but they’re definitely not in good form right now, and appear to be dropping quite swiftly into danger. They will need to turn things around, but this is unlikely to be the match to do it.
The prediction is an away win.
Prediction: Osasuna 1-2 Athletic Club
