Both Osasuna and Villarreal are currently enjoying the comforts of mid-table in the La Liga. Both teams will be eager to make a push for an even stronger position, when going toe-to-toe on Saturday.

While Villarreal could be closing on the top 6 with a win here, Osasuna will be hoping to add some distance to the lower regions. Of these two possible scenarios, the former definitely looks more likely than the latter.

Osasuna only average a modest 1.3 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 13 goals. They also conceded 18 for an average of 1.8 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring one times.

Villarreal are brimming with confidence in front of goal before the upcoming away match in the La Liga, as they can show off very handsome numbers from their previous ten games. The visitors scored 2.1 times on average per match, for a total of 21 goals. They also let in 15 goals, leaving an average of 1.5 per match. They fought their way to three clean sheets.

Villarreal won 3-1 and 3-0 in the two most recent meetings with Osasuna, and go into their upcoming match with a psychological advantage.

Osasuna vs Villarreal Team News

Osasuna have an almost full squad available against Villarreal at Estadio El Sadar with only one player possibly missing.

Osasuna are unable to field Jose Arnaiz on Saturday against Villarreal, as he is sidelined with an injury.

Villarreal could have a whole host of players on the injured and absent players for their next match, as seven players are nursing various problems. Alfonso Pedraza, Alejandro Baena and Kiko sit this one out for Villarreal, serving a suspension instead of travelling to meet Osasuna.

Names like Eric Bailly, Alfonso Pedraza, Ramon Terrats, Daniel Parejo, Juan Foyth, Yeremi Pino and Denis Suarez most likely won't be deemed fit enough to play Osasuna.
