One of the matches of the 28th round of the Spanish Championship will take place on Sunday at the El Sadar Stadium, where the local team Osasuna will host Getafe. I suggest a bet on the outcome of this clash with good chances of success.
Match preview
Osasuna approaches the upcoming match with a disappointing 4-match winless streak in the championship (3 draws and 1 loss). During this period, the team suffered a defeat from Celta (0:1) and drew with Mallorca, Real Madrid, and Valencia.
It is worth noting that in the last 13 La Liga matches, Osasuna ended in a draw nine times. Despite being only 13th in the standings, they are just eight points away from the European competition zone, with a game in hand.
Getafe sensationally defeated Atletico Madrid (2:1) at home in the last round, with both goals scored in the final moments of the match. Before that, Pepe Bordalas' side lost to Betis (1:2) and Leganes (0:1). Following this victory, the team climbed to 12th place in the standings and moved seven points clear of the relegation zone.
It should be noted that the club has not lost in 7 of their last 9 La Liga matches, securing 5 wins and 2 draws. Despite having one of the best defenses in La Liga, Getafe struggles significantly in attack. Their scoring ability leaves much to be desired, with only Valladolid performing worse in this aspect.
Probable lineups
- Osasuna: Sergio Herrera – Abel Bretones, Jesus Areso, Aimar Oros, Enzo Boyomo, Alejandro Catena – Lucas Torro, Jon Moncayola, Bryan Zaragoza, Ruben Garcia – Ante Budimir
- Getafe: David Soria – Diego Rico, Omar Alderete, Domingos Duarte, Djene – Mauro Arambarri, Ramon Terrats – Luis Milla, Koba da Costa, Chrisantus Uche – Alvaro Rodriguez
Match facts and head-to-head
- In the first round, Getafe drew with Osasuna at home – 1:1
- The "Both teams to score" bet hit in the last 4 matches
- The "Over 2.5 goals" bet hit in 3 out of the last 4 matches
Prediction
Osasuna has every chance to win the upcoming match, considering Getafe's problems in attack. It is not excluded that the match will end in a draw again, as has often been the case in their previous encounters. Notably, in the last nine head-to-head meetings in Pamplona, Osasuna has not lost to Getafe eight times, achieving three wins and five draws. Our bet is "Osasuna to win with a handicap (0)" at odds of 1.60.
