On Friday night, Osasuna and Athletic Club meet at the Estadio El Sadar in gameweek two of La Liga, with both sides looking for maximum points after contrasting starts to the new campaign.
Osasuna
The home team made a bright start to the new La Liga campaign by recording a 2-0 win at Celta Vigo.
The win continued their good form from last season, as the victory was the team from Pamplona’s third victory in four matches in the Spanish top-flight, having scored at least two goals in each of the wins.
Osasuna’s recent home form in La Liga has also been impressive, as they have claimed victories in five of their last six league outings at El Sadar.
Their recent home matches have certainly offered good entertainment value, as five of their previous seven games have produced over 2.5 goals.
Athletic Club
The Basque side opened the 2023/24 La Liga season with a 2-0 home defeat by Real Madrid.
The defeat wasn’t exactly a massive surprise considering the opposition and that Athletic didn’t exactly experience a great pre-season campaign.
The defeat just continued a run of disappointing results from last season, as they are now winless in four matches in La Liga.
Their recent games in the Spanish top flight have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last nine games.
The Basque club has a bit of a mixed recent record on their travels, as they have won three of their previous nine games on their travels in La Liga, including a four-match winless streak away from home in the Spanish top-flight.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Osasuna will continue their positive start to the season by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
