Osasuna Preview – Osasuna to land the points
It’s a current three-match losing streak of form that Osasuna are riding in La Liga.
They didn’t hit the back of the net in any of those and actually, it has been a run of four games with a goal by them.
They are winless in their last five La Liga fixtures (D2 L3).
We can add a little bit of context to that really though, as the three defeats happened against teams currently in the top four.
Their last four league games have all been against the current top four, so it’s been a tough run of matches.
In the match outright for Monday’s game, Osasuna are the current 4/5 odds-on favourites for the win* (odds recorded 18:51 GMT on November 27th 2021).
The home form of Osasuna this season reads W1 D3 L1.
The lone success for them happened with a 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano at the start of October.
It’s been a D1 L1 return from them since then on home turf in La Liga.
Osasuna have tallied up only four goals at home this season, failing to hit the back of the net in three matches.
This just don’t’ have the look of being a high scoring game and under 1.5 goals is at 7/4 for football betting* (odds recorded 18:51 GMT on November 27th 2021).
In terms of the head to head, Osasuna are undefeated in their last four at home against Elche, winning half of those.
It’s been far from impressive from them, but they don’t look too likely to be picked off.
Osasuna have been level at the halftime break in all but one of their home matches.
So this may well trend towards the half time draw.
Elche Preview – Can Elche snap their winless streak?

They have not taken a victory in any of their last six matches, losing four of those.
It has been only two wins all season by Elche in the top flight and only one on the road.
Overall, Elche have posted a poor road record of W1 D1 L5 this season.
They have come up with just one point from their last five matches away from home so clearly look vulnerable.
In the match outright for football betting, Elche to win is at 15/4* (odds recorded 18:51 GMT on November 27th 2021).

Four of Elche’s five away losses this season did happen by a margin of a single goal only.
SO they haven’t been totally overrun in matches, aside from a 4-1 hammering at Villarreal back in September.
In no away game have Elche been leaving at the half time break and they have conceded the opening goal in 4 of 7 road matches.
Getafe are the only team to have produced fewer La Liga goals than Elche this season.
They are not facing an in-form Osasuna, but still, this looks like being a difficult assignment for the visitors on Monday.
