Real Betis vs Osasuna

Real Betis have enjoyed a strong run in La Liga, picking up four wins and a draw in their last six matches across all competitions. Their only recent defeat came away at Levante in late August, and they have been particularly resolute at home, keeping four clean sheets in their last five matches at this venue. Osasuna have found life more difficult, managing only two wins in their last six league games. After a bright start to the season, they have faced heavy defeats against Alaves and Atletico Madrid and have not secured a win since their home victory over Getafe in August. Their defensive record in recent matches has been concerning, as they have conceded thirteen times in those six fixtures.

Real Betis hold the advantage in recent encounters between these two sides. They have won two of their last four meetings, with the remaining two matches ending in draws.

• Real Betis are undefeated in their last five home matches in all competitions.
• Osasuna have conceded thirteen goals in their last six La Liga appearances.
• A. Budimir has been a key threat for Osasuna with five goals in their recent matches.
• Osasuna have three players ruled out and one in doubt due to injury.
• Real Betis have two players ruled out for this fixture.

Real Betis enter this match in significantly better form and have established themselves as a difficult side to break down at home. While Osasuna will look to improve their recent defensive displays, the hosts appear better positioned to dictate play given their recent record and consistency. We expect Real Betis to lean into their home advantage as they look to build on their current position in the league table.
