The pressure will be on Athletic Bilbao this weekend, as they look to maintain their challenge for a Champions League finish. They will likely be clear favourites against an Osasuna side that have suffered defeats in each of their last four.
The final month of the La Liga season continues this weekend, as Bilbao look to continue their push for a Champions League finish. However, they will need favours from elsewhere if they are to finish in the top four, as they sit six points behind Atletico Madrid with four matches remaining. But, confidence would have been taken from their return to winning ways after going four without a success in the league.
Osasuna will also have a point to prove this weekend, as they have really struggled for form since ensuring their safety in the top flight. The Spanish side comes into this round after losing each of their last four, which has dented their hopes of making a push for a top half finish in La Liga in the final month.
However, Osasuna have enjoyed their visits to the Basque county in recent years after winning in each of their last two. But, they have never recorded victories on three successive visits to the region. They also come into this round after losing their last four for the first time since December 2020.
Bilbao’s home record this season has been a key reason why they are in the hunt for a Champions League finish this term. They have gone 16 without loss at San Mames, with their only defeat coming on the opening day against Real Madrid. If they avoid defeat this weekend, then they will match their best unbeaten home sequence in La Liga history.
Bilbao’s record against Osasuna would be a slight concern ahead of this weekend, as they have won just three of their last eight league meetings against their rivals. Osasuna have also picked up points from four of their last five visits to Bilbao in La Liga.
Despite Osasuna enjoying their recent trips to Bilbao, it may be challenging to see that trend continuing based on their recent form. Therefore, the safest play seems to be to side with Bilbao picking up a vital three points in their hunt for a Champions League spot.
