Osasuna will look to build some consistency in their results as they prepare to take on Rayo Vallecano. This La Liga matchday 17 will be played at the El Sadar Stadium on Friday with both teams looking for a statement result. Osasuna are 14th with 16 points while the visitors are 10th with 20 points. A 1-1 draw with Cadiz in the last round meant Osasuna have extended their winless streak to six matches. This sequence saw them draw and lose three games each, since their last La Liga win over Granada in mid-October. They will be keen on improving their defensive work rate as only three teams have conceded more goals than them, coming into this matchday. The results have been equally poor at this venue with only one win and three draws from their eight league matches at this venue.

Vallecano are coming off a goalless draw against Celta Vigo last weekend. That result kept them winless in six matches, drawing four and losing two in the league. In fact, they have won just once across their last 11 La Liga matches drawing eight and losing only twice. This is enough proof that they are proving to be a tough team to beat, that will be happy to take a draw when on offer. Even on the road they have been wary of dropping points and only one of their last five La Liga trips have seen them lose.
