Unpredictable Osasuna Looking For a Shock Win

Despite gaining momentum and bolstering their fighting capacity in La Liga in recent matches, Osasuna is still 12th, with 22 points, 7 points away from the drop zone.

Osasuna has won twice, drawn twice, and lost once in its last five outings in La Liga. They also triumphed over Castellon 0-1 in the Copa del Rey. Their unpredictability means they will be awkward opponents for the reigning La Liga champions.

Barcelona vs. Osasuna Expert Analysis

Barcelona’s 4-3-3 will be expansive and more attacking-minded; the three midfielders will get on the ball and dictate the match’s tempo.

Osasuna will maintain their 4-3-3 formation. However, the team will play narrow and deeper, affording them the proximity between players that minimizes spaces between the lines and makes it harder for Barcelona to create chances through the middle.
