Team News

Osasuna
Villarreal
  • Osasuna will have some insignificant absences, such as Iker Benito, who is awaiting tests due to an adductor injury.
  • Kike Barja also does not seem to be 100% fit and could remain out of the squad, as he did not complete all of the week's sessions normally.
  • Villarreal arrive with some key absences. Foyth, who is already back training with the team, faces a tough task to make the squad, joining Akhomach and Pedraza who have been ruled out.
  • Bailly, Pepe, and Ayoze will also be missing, while Álex Baena has a better chance to play despite a joint injury.
  • Gerard Moreno, Femenia, and Terrats have recovered, and the seriousness of the discomfort that kept Pape Gueye from playing against Burundi with Senegal remains to be seen.

Prediction

  • Osasuna, currently in fifth place in the league, has been aided by their impressive home form, having secured 16 out of the 21 available points at home. It has been a very promising start for their new head coach, Vicente Moreno, who took charge of the team in the summer.
  • Villarreal, in fourth position, come into this match with a boost of confidence from consecutive wins. However, injuries to key players such as top goalscorer Ayoze and Nicolas Pepe over the international break have added to their already growing list of injured players.
  • This will undoubtedly make their upcoming match even more challenging, especially considering they will be playing at one of the league's most formidable venues.
