Barcelona v Osasuna Betting Tips
It was late and it was dramatic, but Barcelona’s win at Real Madrid on the weekend keeps the title race wide open. That moved Barca to the top of the pile on goal difference, but Real do still have a game in hand over them. So all Barcelona can do is win their remaining games and hope. Barcelona have gone W12 D3 L1 at home this season in the league and they are on a nine-match winning streak there in the league. They took a 3-0 win at Osasuna earlier in the season and hold a commanding head to head lead over them. Barcelona are unbeaten in their last five against Osasuna and ran out 7-0 winners the last time they hosted Osasuna in the league back in march 2014. Barcelona have scored at least two goals in eleven of their last twelve against Osasuna. The shortest priced option in the Bet365 Correct Score market is a 4-0 win for Barca at 13/2 with a 3-0 coming in at 15/2. In the first goalscorer market, Lionel Messi is at 21/20 with Luis Suarez at 12/5. Neymar misses through suspension.
Barcelona to win to nil at Bet365 returns a price of 8/13 while the game going over 4.5 goals will fetch an 8/13 quote. Osasuna are likely going to be relegated, there’s only a slim mathematical chance that they won’t be. They have gone W2 D1 L3 in their last six games, but those are two of just three wins they have recorded all season in La Liga. They recently went to Real Madrid in the league and lost 3-0 so that’s around the ballpark for this one for their game against Barcelona. Osasuna have gone W2 D3 L11 out on the road in La Liga and they have netted just the 15 league goals out on the road this term while having conceded 39. It would be a huge shock if they managed to not concede in this one, both teams to score would be an equally big shock. Osasuna have conceded 25 goals in total in their last four games at the Nou Camp, scoring just one themselves in that sequence of games.
