Real Sociedad will look to continue their top-five push when they travel to Osasuna this weekend. This La Liga match will be played at the El Sadar Stadium on Saturday. Ahead of this round, the hosts are 14th in the standings with 14 points from 14 matches while the visitors are 6th with 25 points. Osasuna are six points above the bottom-three which isn’t much of a cushion if one considers their recent form. The hosts have lost three of their last four league games, while drawing the other. Problems remain with their defensive record as they have conceded 24 goals so far. This tally is worse than all sides bar three, which is a testimony to their poor performances.

Sociedad are tied on points with Athletic Bilbao who currently occupy the fifth slot, but are only one point ahead of seventh-placed Betis. As such, there is very little room for margin as an adverse result could easily see them tumbling down to seventh. The visitors are coming off a goalless draw against Salzburg in the Champions League which extended their unbeaten run to four matches, giving them confidence of doing well here. The remaining three games ended in a win for Sociedad, who would be keen to replicate that result on this trip. Even in the league, the visitors have six wins across their last nine matches giving them confidence of continuing that run. To go with that, Sociedad have won their last five La Liga trips to Osasuna and will be looking to pick up full points here.
