Osasuna, Recent FormOsasuna will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 away win against Valencia. They achieved 35% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Valencia's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Jagoba Arrasate will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at The Estadio El Sadar.

Ante Budimir will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at The Estadio El Sadar, having notched up 6 goals for Osasuna in their last 6 league matches at home.
Barcelona, Recent FormBarcelona head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 4-3 away win against Villarreal in their last league encounter.

They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
This has been a difficult period for the team in terms of away form, with 3 defeats and just 2 victories in their last 6 matches away from home.
