Real Madrid vs Osasuna Preview
- Tournament: LaLiga
- Date: 9th November 2024
- Kickoff time: 5:30 PM GMT
- Venue: Santiago Bernabeu
Real Madrid is going through a rough phase and this got worse for Carlo Ancelotti this week. They have lost their last two matches – both at home – to Barcelona in the league and then AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League.
Los Blancos will be looking to bounce back from the defeats when they face Osasuna this week. Last week, they did not have league match due to the situation in Valencia.
Osasuna finished 11th in the league last season but have started with a stunning run this year. They are 5th in the table, and a win this weekend would see them collect more than half the points they got last season – despite playing less than 1/3rd of the season. Both teams come in with just one loss in their last 5 league matches. They also have three wins and one draw in those games.
Real Madrid Team News
Real Madrid have a fresh injury-related headache in Fede Valverde. The Uruguayan star is a doubt for the Osasuna clash but is expected to make the bench at least.
Apart from the midfielder, David Alaba, Thibaut Courtois, and Dani Carvajal remain out. Aurélien Tchouaméni was also ruled out for a month earlier this week due to a sprained ankle.
Osasuna Team News
Osasuna does not have any injury worries and will be able to go to the capital with a full-fit squad. The players will be motivated because they can go level on points with Los Blancos with a win, which could play a huge factor.
