Osasuna – Alaves

Osasuna host Alavés in a clash that pits the league’s 11th‑placed side, with seven points from two wins, a draw and two defeats and a modest 5‑8 goal record, against a surging Alavés occupying third place on ten points after three victories, a draw and a single loss, boasting an impressive 11‑5 tally. The home side will be looking to overturn a season that has seen them concede more than they score, while Alavés will aim to extend their strong start and keep pressure on the leaders. Head‑to‑head, the two clubs have rarely met this season, making the encounter a fresh test of form. A win for Osasuna could tighten the mid‑table scramble, whereas Alavés will be eager to close the gap on the top two.
