Osasuna – Girona 13-04-2025

The match between Osasuna and Girona at the Estadio El Sadar in Pamplona is a highly dramatic duel between two teams that are in an intense battle to avoid relegation. Both teams have collected 35 and 34 points after 30 rounds played, making this match a direct six-point duel. The result will not only have an impact on the confidence and form curve going forward, but could also be decisive for who manages to stay in La Liga and who has to make the trip down to the Segunda División.

Osasuna – Fighting for survival in La Liga

Osasuna are in a very difficult period. The team has only won one of their last ten matches, with five draws and four losses. It is clear that both confidence and efficiency in front of goal have been in short supply. Their last match ended 1-1 away to Leganés, where they again dropped points after taking the lead. A late penalty ensured a draw – a pattern that has repeated itself several times this season. However, it is worth noting that Osasuna have been somewhat stronger at home than away.

Bryan Zaragoza is still out with a muscle injury, which is hampering Osasuna's offensive creativity, but the rest of the squad should be available.

Osasuna have alternated between 5-4-1 and 4-3-3 formations in recent matches, trying to control the midfield and exploit the wings effectively – especially at home to El Sadar. The team is known for its high intensity, physical play and solid pressing, but have struggled to convert chances into goals.

Girona – Misses last year's season

Girona started the season strongly but have collapsed in the final third. They have only won one of their last ten games, with three draws and six losses. Their poor form is largely due to a combination of injuries, a lack of creativity in midfield and poor performances away from home.

Iván Martín is still not fully recovered from a hamstring injury. His absence means that important offensive transitions and set pieces will lose a central conductor. This will particularly affect players like Herrera and Stuani, and could give Osasuna the upper hand in midfield.

Girona prefer a 4-3-3 or 5-4-1 formation, but have struggled mightily away from home. They often lose physical duels and are unable to dictate the pace of matches. Without Iván Martín, the team lacks rhythm and balance.

Conclusion – Tough duels await

The last five meetings between the teams have ended with three wins for Girona, one for Osasuna and one draw. Girona won 4-0 in the last match in August, but that was at home. Osasuna will be hungry for revenge in front of their own fans, and their strong home support could be decisive.

In these five matches, a total of 25 yellow cards and one red card have been handed out. If we look at Osasuna's last ten matches, 43 yellow cards and 3 red cards have been registered. For Girona, the figures are 42 yellow cards and one red card in the same period.

In addition, penalties have been awarded in seven of Osasuna's last ten games and six in the last ten for Girona - although not all have resulted in goals. Based on this, the odds tip is clear: We believe there will be a penalty in the match.

It is clear that this will be a close and physical match between two teams in desperate need of points. Osasuna has home field advantage and a slight edge in intensity, while Girona has better technical quality – although this has not paid off recently.

Everything is set for an exciting match that could either be decided early or be marked by drama until the final whistle. So get out the popcorn and sit back in your armchair!
