Almeria vs Osasuna Prediction & Match Preview

Steffen Schmidt - September 10, 2022

Almeria vs Osasuna
Spanish La Liga
Date: 12 September 2022, Monday
Kick-off at 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
Venue: Power Horse Stadium – Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos (Almeria).

Almeria and Osasuna will close Gameweek No 5 in Spanish La Liga on Monday night when they take on each other at Power Horse Stadium.

Osasuna took advantage of the schedule and the fact they played three of the inaugural four games of the season at home to collect nine points from these matches.

Their lone defeat of the season came in the lone away fixture and it was a narrow one, 1-0 at Real Betis.

Head coach Jagoba Arrasate is obviously doing a phenomenal job with this group of players and a very modest budget the team has on disposal for this season.

Osasuna will have a nice chance to keep the good form going and collect the first point(s) on the road here as they face the newly-promoted Almeria.

While the last season’s Segunda Division champions did not impress in the last Monday’s away loss at Real Valladolid, we should by no means underestimate them going into this tie.

Almeria have shown incomparably better performances at home than on the road so far in the season despite facing tougher rivals in the fixtures in their own backyard.

Rubi’s men have thus offered a great resistance against reigning champions Real Madrid on the opening day (a 1-2 loss) before beating the likes of Sevilla (2-1) in the second home fixture of the campaigm.

Almeria vs Osasuna Head-to-head

• These two teams locked horns in the last 16 round of Copa del Rey two seasons ago when Almeria advanced on penalties after a goalless draw in the regular time.
• Interestingly, none of eleven previous H2H meetings at Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos ended without a winner (Almeria have six wins and five losses in the process).
• One or fewer goals were scored in three of the last four head to head matches between these rivals.

Almeria vs Osasuna Prediction

Almeria are very much capable of scoring in front of their fans. They have bagged three goals in two home outings against the likes of Real Madrid and Sevilla.

Knowing that Osasuna have notched two goals in three of their opening four matches of the season, we recognize the value in the 1.95 odds offered for the Both Teams To Score bet here. As for the outcome, we fancy the hosts at the 2.75 odds based on the displays they have produced so far at Power Horse Stadium.

Almeria vs Osasuna Betting Tips

• Both Teams To Score @ 1.95 (19/20)

• Almeria to win @ 2.75 (7/4) odd.
