The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Osasuna lock horns with an impressive Villarreal side in an important fixture at the El Madrigal Stadium on Sunday.
Villarreal vs Osasuna Preview
Osasuna are currently in 13th place in the La Liga standings and have been fairly inconsistent so far this season. The away side played out a 1-1 draw against Las Palmas last week and will need to take it up a notch in this match.
Villarreal, on the other hand, are in 15th place in the league table at the moment and have failed to meet expectations so far this season. The Yellow Submarines slumped to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
