Osasuna vs Barcelona Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The visitors are on a run of seven consecutive wins in LaLiga this season.

After seven wins in seven games, a fierce FC Barcelona squad are now set to travel to Pamplona, Navarre, and face hosts CA Osasuna next. This is set to be the eighth LaLiga 2024-25 game for both sides.

Osasuna have so far fared above their expectations in the ongoing league. They have attained victories against teams like Celta Vigo, Mallorca, and Las Palmas while succumbing to the pressures of stronger sides like Girona and Valencia CF.

FC Barcelona, under new manager Hansi Flick, have so far been the best side in the Spanish top division. They not only won all their games, but dominated in most of them, and even claimed big-margin wins. This game will give them a further chance to boost their lead in the points table.

Kick-Off:

Saturday, 28th September at 8:00 PM UK

Sunday, 29th September 12:30 AM IST

Location: El Sadar, Stadium in Pamplona, Spain

Form

CA Osasuna (in all competitions): D-W-L-W-L

FC Barcelona (in all competitions): W-W-L-W-W

Players to Watch:

Aimar Oroz (CA Osasuna)

The no. 10 is an integral part of the CA Osasuna squad. He starts in every game, and manager Vicente Moreno seems to have full trust in him. The player even scored the winner against UD Las Palmas. 

He needs to take the central role in this game and deliver a shocker to FC Barcelona if possible. His prime responsibility will be to cater to the forward line and keep the Barca back-line busy.

Ferran Torres (FC Barcelona)

Every other player seems to have clicked well under new manager Hansi Flick, except for Ferran Torres. The winger still seems to be struggling with form. He has only scored one goal and provided a single assist so far.

With Dani Olmo injured, he is the natural successor in his position. Torres needs to display his class again, and score goals like the other forwards to solidify his role.

Match Facts:

• FC Barcelona are the only team with an all-win run in LaLiga 2024-25.
• FC Barcelona have scored more goals in the ongoing LaLiga than the number of goals scored and conceded by Osasuna.
• Barca have scored in every competitive game they have played this season.

Match Prediction for CA Osasuna vs FC Barcelona

Nothing but a dominating performance with a huge goal margin victory would satisfy FC Barcelona in this game. The side are riding in high form, and are predicted to play a one-sided match. But, playing at home, CA Osasuna might strike a goal, especially after seeing an injury-ridden Cules defence.

Prediction: CA Osasuna 1-7 FC Barcelona
