Osasuna vs Sevilla Prediction & Betting Tips - LaLiga

Prediction published on 09/08/2022, 22:55  by Daniel Ngulu in LaLiga Predictions

The Spanish La Liga returns, with the first game slated for this Friday as Osasuna plays host to Sevilla. The two sides had strong finishes to the preseason engagements and will be looking to start well. Osasuna wrapped up preseason with three straight wins but this will be a stronger opponent compared to their last three. They come from a 2-1 win over Mirandes in their final game of preseason and a top concern for them will be on the fact that they managed just one clean sheet in their last five preseason matches. Three of their last five matches produced over 2.5 goals, with Osasuna scoring twice in two of the last three matches. They failed to score in just one of their last five matches, with both teams scoring in three of the last four.

The caliber of opponents Sevilla have faced in preseason was tougher than Osasuna’s. They recovered from losses to Premier League sides Arsenal and Leicester City with a 1-0 closing preseason win over Cadiz. While they ended their preseason with a clean sheet, Sevilla will still feel they need to work on their defending, especially in view of the 6-0 defeat to Arsenal. Both sides have scored in just one of Sevilla’s last five matches but they have two clean sheets only in those five matches. Sevilla are unbeaten in 10 matches against Osasuna, winning eight of them.
