Champions Atletico Madrid take on Osasuna at the Wanda Metropolitano in the Spanish La Liga. Atletico are on 23 points from their 12 matches while the visitors are on 19 points from 13 matches. The home team are five points behind surprise leaders Real Sociedad but the Madrid side have a game in hand. Atletico currently occupy the last Champions League spot but they will want the title and anything less will be viewed as a failure by Coach Diego Simone. The champions have been dropping points at home winning three matches and drawing three. In two of the three drawn matches they needed late goals to force the draw. Atletico are unbeaten in their last five league matches and have only lost once this season. That defeat was a 1-0 loss away to Alaves. They have won their last six matches against Osasuna, scoring at least two goals in each match.

The visitors are just one point of the Europa league qualifying position with 19 points. They are in a good position but could have been in a much better situation as they have had a slump in form. They were amongst the front runners after nine matches but no wins in their last four matches have halted their progress. Their last match was a 2-0 loss away to Sevilla. Osasuna have lost their last two matches without scoring, they have not lost three consecutive matches without scoring since November 2016. They have an excellent away record this season winning four on the road with one loss and a draw. They have only kept two clean sheets in their last nine away matches across all competitions.
