Osasuna take on the visitors Valencia in the round 8 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Friday, October 7th at Estadio El Sadar (Pamplona).
Osasuna’s first team, in their current form, was built and trained by Yagoba Arrasate. This specialist came to Pamplona in 2018. And he quickly earned promotion to the LaLiga, and only there the "Reds" were able to show a fairly high level, quickly gaining a foothold among the middle peasants of the division. For example, they managed to finish the last season at the 10th position. And now, it seems, they are ready to compete for something more, claiming European cups’ place. There are more wins than losses in the 2022/2023 season, and the goal ratio is also good. There are already victories against opponents like Sevilla, not to mention Cadiz, Rayo Vallecano and Almería. Last Sunday there was a duel with Real Madrid. There, the team once again confirmed its current good status, having managed to stop the giant, 1-1. Before that Real defeated every opponent. True, Benzema did not convert a penalty in that match.

Valencia are a "perfect" example of the fact that rich owners are not always a blessing, as was the case with PSG and Manchester City. The eccentric billionaire infuriated the Mestalla stands by personally making the absurd decision to fire a successful mentor, Marcelino Garcia Toral. After a long unsuccessful streak, it turned out to give out a promising last season. Yes, gradually in the course of the La Liga season, Los Chess were blown away. More precisely, they focused on the cup, where, having reached the final, they lost to Betis on penalties. But was it worth parting with Pepe Bordalas after such a thing that he only started working in 2021? Now an unexpected decision has been made to entrust the "bats" to Gattuso. Gennaro had neither worked nor played in Spain before. Under his leadership, victories alternate with defeats. And with Espanyol in the last round they pulled out a dramatic draw.
In general, the current history of head-to-head confrontations shows an approximate equality between the clubs. This was also the case last season, when Osasuna and Valencia exchanged away victories. Bookmakers consider Osasuna as a favorite - they plays at own field. We recommend to bet on the fact that in this meeting the "Pamplonians" with "Valencia" will feature a number goals - "total over 2.0 goals".
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 scored goals.
