🔊 Will Getafe's rise in the La Liga standings continue? Next Sunday, Jose Bordalas' squad will head to "El Sadar" to face Osasuna in a head-to-head match. The team of referees, led by Alejandro Hernandez, will ensure the rules are followed.

Our editorial team has prepared an informative prediction, taking into account the current context.
Head-to-Head
The previous meeting of the teams at "El Sadar" was remembered for a goal-scoring extravaganza, with Osasuna emerging victorious (3:2). In the first round of the current championship, the "reds" and "dark blues" were unable to determine the stronger side (1:1). Let's take a look at the full head-to-head history in La Liga: 6 victories for the team from Pamplona, 12 draws, and 13 victories for the "city team".
H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results
Osasuna Team Overview
In the last 14 rounds of La Liga, the "reds" have celebrated success only once - in a match against Real Sociedad (2:1). This unsuccessful series directly affected the team's standing - 14th position in the league table. However, performances at "El Sadar" are generally convincing - 24 points earned after 14 games (7th best in the league). With the departure of Jagoba Arrasate, Osasuna has ceased to be characterized by an ultra-reliable defensive line. On average, Vicente Moreno and company concede 1.42 goals per match.
The tactical model of the "reds" is based on overloading one of the flanks. The contrast in the roles of the wing-backs on opposite flanks is particularly evident. One of them is usually positioned deeper, forming a line of 3 defenders during attacking phases. The absolute leader of the club is Ante Budimir. The Croatian forward is exemplary in aerial duels, thus adding variability in the opponent's half. This season, the 33-year-old forward has already scored 17 goals.
Match Results: Osasuna
Getafe Team Overview
In the last round, the "city" team created a sensation by defeating Atletico Madrid (2:1). Patient waiting and incredible dedication allowed Getafe to overcome the "Colchoneros." The undisputed hero of the match was Mauro Arambarri, who scored a brace. This season has been groundbreaking for the Uruguayan in terms of scoring - 8 goals.
It is no secret that Jose Bordalas' favorite formation is 4-4-2. One of the main advantages of this setup is the simplicity of the players' functions and roles. This allows for situational pressing and organized positional defense. The Spanish specialist emphasizes covering large areas of the field. The formation's focus on compactness and vertical football perfectly aligns with the desires of Getafe's manager. Due to suspension, Yellu Santiago will have to miss the upcoming match. Besides him, the participation of Spanish forward Koba Gomez da Costa remains in question.

⚽️ Goal Prediction
Interestingly, in 5 out of the last 6 head-to-head meetings, goals were scored by both sides. A similar event occurred in 7 of Osasuna's last 9 matches. It's highly indicative that the "reds" have been unable to keep a clean sheet for 12 consecutive games. Considering the decent form of the "city" team, we will focus on the following event - Getafe to score.
🚩 Corner Prediction
We will form a bet based on the ratio of corners earned and conceded by the teams this season. Osasuna shows a negative trend in this game component: 4.3 against 5.2. Due to high compactness in defense, the "city" team concedes very few corners at their own goal: 3.9 against 3.9. In head-to-head confrontations, the "dark blues" also hold some advantage: 4.9 against 3.7. Our choice is - victory for Getafe on corner kicks with a handicap (+1.5).
Editorial Prediction
It is still unclear what to expect from the "reds" in the upcoming match. Vicente Moreno often faces difficulties against teams from the lower part of the standings. The reason for this is the preference of the Pamplona team to play as the second number and benefit from vertical football. The "City" team is effective on set pieces and extremely dangerous on counterattacks, so they have every chance to score points again. Our editorial team predicts a final score of 1:1. Key choice - Getafe will not lose.
