"Osasuna are a modest club who are happy to be just in La Liga. They do tend to push as high as they can and ended up as high as ninth in the La Liga table last season. While it may not be too likely that Alessio Lisci's side will do as well this time around, one suspects that they will be happy if they end up in the top half of the table."
"Osasuna are likely to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Real Madrid. Sergio Herrera will be in goal and will have Valentin Rosier, Alejandro Catena, Jorge Herrando and Javi Galan in front of him in defence. Lucas Torro and Iker Munoz will be the two holding midfielders. Ruben Garcia, Victor Munoz and Aimar Oroz will be the three attacking midfielders. Ante Budimir will lead the line for Osasuna."
"Real Madrid have recovered their form following the departure of Xabi Alonso as the manager and are now doing well under new boss Alvaro Arbeloa. Los Blancos are very much in the race for the La Liga title and could win it. Madrid are currently at the top of the La Liga table at the moment with 60 points from 24 matches, two points ahead of second-placed and defending champions Barcelona."
Osasuna visit El Sadar to face Real Madrid in a Saturday La Liga fixture kicking off at 5:30pm UK time. Osasuna sit 10th with 30 points from 24 matches and bring recent results including a goalless draw at Elche, a 2-1 away win at Celta de Vigo and a 2-2 draw with Villarreal. A 4-2-3-1 is expected with Sergio Herrera in goal and Ante Budimir leading the attack. Real Madrid top the table with 60 points from 24 matches, sit two points clear of Barcelona, and have stabilised under new boss Alvaro Arbeloa.
