Osasuna hosts Villarreal in round 14 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, December 19th at Estadio El Sadar (Pamplona)
Osasuna has come to the last place in the current tournament standings. The Reds pleasantly amazed the fans in the last Temporada. Then the team that returned from Segunda showed meaningful football under the leadership of Jagoba Arrasate and eventually finished in the middle of the tournament standings. However, the club is failing the current championship. Having started with an away victory over Cadiz, Osasuna also had a good streak in October (seven points scored in three matches). But this is where all the successes actually ended. In the last six matches, the team from Pamplona got hold of only one point due to a draw with a competitor in the fight for survival, Huesca. Having lost 2-3 to Valladolid, the team fell to the last 20th place.

Villarreal continues its unbeaten run. The Yellow Submarine has significantly improved its results under Unai Emery. If the team regularly received a ticket to the Europa League but did not lay serious claims to something more in previous years, now it shows a rather decent game in the quartet of leaders. The only defeat was back in September (0-4 with Barcelona) when the team was just studying the philosophy and requirements of the mentor, and the newcomers were adapting to the team’s style. Since then, the unbeaten streak has already reached 10 matches in a row. However, the Yellows have tied four times in a row. And if such results of the home match against Real Madrid and away game with Sociedad can be considered an achievement of the club, then 0-0 with Elche and 1-1 with Betis is rather a loss of points. So far, it turns out to remain in the coveted 4th place, but Sevilla and Barcelona are located behind. The fight for the Champions League will be tough, and it is advisable to take the maximum with outsiders.
The victory went to Villarreal in four of the last five head-to-head meetings. However, Osasuna won at home in October last year (2:1). Villarreal has already lost many points in the last matches, so it needs to rectify the situation. We will bet on its victory on the outsider's field.
Prediction for the match: Villarreal to win
