Sevilla take on the visitors Osasuna in the round 15 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Monday, November 2nd at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán (Sevilla).
Sevilla are struggling to find consistency. "Los Nervionenses" were once regarded as the fourth powerhouse in Spanish football. However, they’ve faced a sharp decline over the past two seasons. Despite winning the Europa League two years ago, Sevilla failed to capitalize on that success. Last season, they hit new lows, finishing last in their Champions League group and slumping to 14th in La Liga. This summer, Javier García Pimienta took over as head coach after impressing with Las Palmas, but results have been underwhelming. Sevilla have suffered more losses than wins this season, with nearly half of their matches ending in defeat. However, they managed a narrow 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in the previous round, offering a glimmer of hope. Sevilla will likely focus on controlling possession and creating opportunities through wide areas, relying on Jesús Navas and Lucas Ocampos.

Osasuna have seen a steady improvement under new coach Vicente Moreno, who replaced Jagoba Arrasate in the summer. The "Rojillos" had an underwhelming 2022/23 season despite reaching the Copa del Rey final and securing a 7th-place finish. This season, they’ve already won six matches, including a notable victory over Barcelona, and accumulated 22 points.Their last outing, however, showcased defensive vulnerabilities, as they squandered a lead to draw 2-2 with Villarreal despite a brace from Ante Budimir. Moreno has brought more attacking intent to Osasuna, but the defense remains a concern. Osasuna’s counter-attacking style and set-piece efficiency could exploit Sevilla’s defensive frailties.
Osasuna are unbeaten in their last six matches against Sevilla, though four of those games ended in draws. Both encounters last season finished level. While Sevilla may have the edge on paper, Osasuna’s momentum and solid recent record against the Andalusian side suggest that the visitors could take points from this fixture. Sevilla’s home advantage makes them slight favorites, but their lackluster form and Osasuna’s improved performances under Moreno suggest this could be a tight affair. Given Osasuna’s ability to compete against stronger teams and Sevilla’s struggles, the visitors could secure a result.
Prediction for the match: Osasuna to win or draw.
