Fighting for a top half finish in La Liga, Osasuna has managed to place themselves at a stable 9th position on the table. The team is not the most consistent but they are always tough to beat at home. The Rojillos have suffered just two home defeats this season and both have been closely contested matches with a 2-1 scoreline, first against Real Betis and then Athletic Bilbao. The fact that Real Madrid might not be full strength, makes this trip for Real Madrid even tougher.
The emotions from Real Madrid’s victory over Manchester City in the Round of 16 of Champions League have barely settled. Now, they have a new challenge waiting for them on Saturday, the away match against Osasuna. Madrid will head to the match with Osasuna off the back of their away triumph against Manchester City.
Real Madrid still stands at the top la Liga table but their cushion is alarmingly thin as Atletico is just a point behind and Barcelona a further place below with just 2 points. A slip up could cost them dearly which is why the Osasuna match is important for the complete picture. Even further, matches played at Pamplona are tough more so for Osasuna which was again evident in the match at home with Barcelona as they claimed a thumping win of 4-2.
