Real Madrid CF vs CA Osasuna Prediction 9 November 2024
Added on 08 November, 2024
On Saturday, the thirteenth round of La Liga kicks off in Madrid as Osasuna heads to the capital to take on Real Madrid.
Real Madrid has shown strong form recently, posting wins over Alaves (3-2), Villarreal (2-0), and Celta Vigo (2-1), while drawing with Atletico (1-1). However, the Blancos recently faced setbacks, suffering significant home defeats to Barcelona (0-4) in La Liga and to AC Milan (1-3) in the Champions League. Despite these recent stumbles, Real Madrid holds the second spot in La Liga with 24 points and a 21:11 goal difference.
Osasuna, sitting fifth in the table with 21 points and a 17:16 goal difference, has had an impressive start to the season. Over the past month, the Pamplona-based team has strengthened its position with wins over Barcelona (4-2), Real Sociedad (2-0), and Valladolid (1-0), as well as a 1-1 draw against Getafe. They only faltered slightly with a 1-2 loss to Real Betis.
Although bookmakers heavily favor Real Madrid, this matchup could be closer than expected. Madrid may be dealing with fatigue from recent Champions League play, while Osasuna has proven its capability to challenge strong opponents and could well hold their own for at least a half against the La Liga giants.
