Celta vs Osasuna Prediction: Osasuna Not To Lose

Celta will host Osasuna in round 13 of La Liga. Quite an interesting match awaits us. The Pamplona side are fighting for a place in the European competitions, while Celta are struggling to retain their place in the elite. At least, that' s how it is at the moment. Let’s get into it!

In the five most recent games, Celta has lost four times with one draw. It is obvious that Celta are in poor athletic form, which was reflected in the tournament position. Before round 13 starts, the Sky Blues are only 16th in the division, with 11 points, one point more than Sevilla and Cadiz. Celta's home stats are slightly better than their overall, 13th in the division, +2=2-2, 9-9 goal difference.

Osasuna, on the other hand, has already had a 3-match unbeaten streak with two wins over Espanyol and Valladolid and a draw against Girona after a 2-match losing streak against Valencia and Villarreal. Such results allowed the Pamplona side to climb to seventh place, just one point behind Athletic, who are in the UEFA competitions zone. Osasuna's away statistics are only slightly worse than those of Celta, scoring five points in five games on a 3-5 goal difference.

Let's start with the fact that Celta is in terrible shape, losing four of their last five matches, while in the last three games, their opponents were the modest Valladolid, Getafe, and Almeria. Despite these results, the bookmakers are on Celta's side. And that taking into account Osasuna's 3-match unbeaten streak. Yes, the Pamplona side is not as good on the road as they are at home, but the home team cannot boast stable stats at their stadium. We predict that the guests will score points in Saturday's game, but we doubt that it would be enough for Osasuna to win. We expect a low-scoring draw.
