Osasuna is unbeaten in the last five meetings. In the championship, there were draws with Celta and Mallorca and defeats against Valencia and Villarreal. In the Spanish Cup, Osasuna lost to Athletic in regulation time, but in extra time in the 116th minute, Ibañez scored a goal that put the future hosts into the final of the Spanish Cup. In the decisive match of the second most important tournament of the Spanish championship, the opponent of Osasuna will be Real Madrid. Before starting the 28th round of the Spanish championship, Osasuna sits ninth in the standings of the Spanish championship with 35 points, two points less than Athletic's seventh position. And in the case of Osasuna's defeat in the Spanish Cup final, the seventh place will become a European Cup place. Osasuna's home statistics are 16th in the division, +6=1-6, 12:14 goal difference.
Elche
Elche is the main underdog of La Liga. After 27 rounds, the team has 13 points, 14 points behind Valencia, which is even more than Elche managed to gain since the beginning of the tournament. After the international break, Elche lost on home soil to Barcelona 0:4. On the road, Elche has the 19th statistic in the division, +1=3-9, 8:30 goal difference. There is no weaker team than Elche in La Liga; however, whether the Pamplona side has enough motivation to beat the outsider is a question.
Expert Betting Tips
There is no confidence that after 120 minutes in Bilbao, Osasuna, in the upcoming game, will be able to show their best, albeit against the weakest club in the national championship. Elche already has nothing in the current season, but that does not mean that the guests will just give points at the end of the season. Some of the players of Elche dream of staying in the Primera, and for this, they need to prove themselves. We expect a difficult match for Osasuna. We also expect that more than two goals won't be scored in this game; well, we are not surprised with the draw, say with a score of 1:1.
