We´re just under a week away from the start of a new season in La Liga for Osasuna. We´ll be facing Cadiz, a newly promoted team on Saturday the 12th at 9:00 pm.

We´ll be using this thread for all the pre and post match action during the season and any info regarding the clubs´ games.
Everyone is welcome here for a chat in English even if it´s not your first language.

We´ll be probably have the following line up with Rubén in goal with Nacho Vidal, Aridane, David García and Juan Cruz in defence. Torres, Rubén García, Barja Oier and Torró in midfield with probably Adrián to start off up front.

Great start to the season with a 2-0 victory away at Cádiz. Adrián scored the first goal and Rubén García added the second with 10 minutes to go.

We couldn´t make it two out of two. In an extremely tactical game, Getate took the three points after an defensive error and a goal that had to be revieweb by VAR

Disappointing, one of those games that could have gone either way, Osasuna deserved at least one point!!!

Today we were clearly outperformed by Levante. There always seemed to be that extra "Granota" each time we were in posession. Even though Torres scored the 1-0 and that Herrera saved a penalty, Levante played well and were the dominant side this morning at El Sadar. Tons to improve.

Blowing hot and cold it seems....no problem with the well deserved victory over Celta!

Celta are going to struggle unless they change a lot. Tremendous victory for us!

Atletico Madrid seem a great side, no disgrace to lose at home to them.....

We should´ve scored in the first minute. Enric Gallego can´t miss that!

Such a strange season----coronavirus, now internationals. At least it interrupts the 'greats? (Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla....etc.)....

They suffer from "FIFA virus" more than Osasuna. Only Budimir (Croatia) and Moncayola (Spain U-21) were out.

Osasuna’s only start as a favourite at home in the 2020/21 La Liga (LL) resulted in the first of their two home defeats by a margin of two goals. Courtesy of a September defeat to Levante, Osasuna went into the international break as one of two clubs to lose a LL home game when scoring the first goal, but have since improved with two home wins-to-nil from their last three home encounters. As a result of Osasuna conceding and scoring just two first half goals each at home across their LL campaign, the first half has not been the highest scoring half in any of their four LL home games to date. Interestingly, the only two home games in which they conceded before HT both resulted in 1-3 scorelines.

Huesca will meet their hosts in a top-flight setting for the first time, having enjoyed three consecutive Segunda División (LL2) contests without defeat (W2, D1). Notably, none of the last four LL2 H2Hs have been decided by more than a one-goal margin. Yet to open the scoring away from home since the opening week, Huesca have in fact been held scoreless to the HT break in each of their last four LL away fixtures, conceding HT/FT doubles and 4-1 results in their last two. But with a record of D3, L2 as an outsider at all venues, including draws against high performing clubs such as Villarreal and Atlético Madrid, Huesca have been capable of securing a point against expectations.

Players to watch: Two of Osasuna’s three winning second halves have included goals from Rubén García. Meanwhile, Rafa Mir has recorded goals in three of his last four LL starts, including Huesca’s first goal twice.

Hot stat: Just three of the combined 17 LL fixtures in 2020/21 involving Osasuna and Huesca have witnessed the opening goal within the first 30 minutes.
