Osasuna will host Real Valladolid at the Estadio El Sadar on Sunday afternoon in another round of the 2022-23 La Liga campaign.
The home side enjoyed a strong start to their season but have struggled to pick up points of late. They played out a dour 1-1 draw against newly-promoted Girona in their last game, with Kike Barja opening the scoring for the Gorritxoak before their opponents leveled the scores just before the interval.
Osasuna sit eighth in the La Liga table with 17 points picked up so far and will be hopeful of adding to that tally this weekend.
Trending
In contrast, Real Valladolid endured a sluggish start to their season but have hit a good patch in recent weeks. They picked up a hard-fought 1-0 win over high-flying Real Sociedad in their last league game, with Sergio Leon scoring the sole goal of the game with a well-taken finish in the 16th minute.
The visitors sit three places and three points behind their weekend opponents in the league table. They will now be looking to build on their latest results when they play this Sunday.

Osasuna vs Real Valladolid Prediction
Osasuna have won just one of their last six La Liga outings after winning four of their previous five. They picked up a 1-0 win over Espanyol in their last home game to end a run of back-to-back defeats at the Estadio El Sadar and will be looking to build on that.
Valladolid are on a run of back-to-back victories after picking up just one win in their six matches prior. They have, however, won just one of their five away games this season and may have to settle for a point here.
Prediction: Osasuna 1-1 Real Valladolid
