Match Overview

Osasuna will host Athletic Bilbao in the second round of the Spanish La Liga competition on Saturday at the Estadio El Sadar. The home team come into this game on the back of a stunning 2-0 victory over Celta Vigo last weekend, Athletic Bilbao were hammered by giants Real Madrid by the same scoreline. Osasuna, therefore, have the bragging rights.

Key Highlights

At the time of writing, Osasuna find themselves at the top of the table whereas Athletic Bilbao are languishing in the 19th position. However, these are still early days, and it remains to be seen how these two teams fare against each other in this game. Unai Simon has been brilliant for Athletic Bilbao between the goalposts, and Osasuna will have to beat him. 

Injury Report

Darko Brasanac has been ruled out of this game for Osasuna due to a cruciate ligament injury. He is expected to make a comeback only by late December. Athletic Bilbao do not have any of their players ruled out owing to injuries. 

Prediction

When these two teams last met, in May earlier this year, Osasuna were able to beat Athletic Bilbao by a 2-0 scoreline. This, along with the form that they showed in their first game of the season, makes Osasuna highly favoured to edge the visiting side out. Yet, we expect BTTS (both teams to win) in this game.
