Osasuna hosts Alaves in round 16 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Thursday, December 31st at Estadio El Sadar (Pamplona)
Osasuna is in the last 20th place in the LaLiga standings, but not everything is as bad as it might seem. The gap to the saving 17th place is only three points. Even the 14th Valencia is only three points ahead, and the Reds still have a match in reserve. In the last round, Osasuna managed to interrupt a streak of four defeats in a row by tying with unyielding Elche on the road. That meeting pleased the fans with spectacular football and ended with a score of 2:2. Truth be told, Osasuna is unlikely to be happy with this result because it was significantly better than its opponent in the attacking actions.

Alaves is doing better than Osasuna, but not much. The team has a 5-point gap from the Reds, but it has already played 15 matches. Therefore, despite the relatively high position in the standings, the Glorious Ones are also among the contenders for relegation to Segunda. Like Osasuna, Alaves did not lose in the last match of the championship. The predictions for its victory in the home match with Eibar were accurate. The Glorious Ones conceded first but created enough goal attempts, for which they were rewarded with a 2:1 victory.
It is difficult to give preference to someone in the upcoming game. Both teams are of a low level, especially when it comes to the game in defense. This translates into the fact that most of their matches are quite scoring. A head-to-head meeting should not be an exception.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals scored
