Real Madrid and Osasuna meet at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium tonight in a La Liga encounter.

Zinedine Zidane’s side come off the back of a well needed 1-0 victory at Seville last weekend, placing them at third in the table and level on points with leaders Granada and second-place Athletic Bilbao.

The Spanish side will be looking to gain three points tonight in order for them to gain a chance of going to the top of the standings.

Osasuna will not make this easy for the side. Jagoba Arrasate’s side are yet to be beaten this season, even going as far as to draw with Barcelona.

At the two sides last meeting Real Madrid triumphed over Osasuna with a score of 3-1.

Prediction

Following a 1-0 victory at Sevilla last weekend, it is looking like Real Madrid will take the victory tonight despite their uncertain form. But the side may find it a tougher game than anticipated as Osasuna have drawn four of their opening five games, including a draw with Barcelona, and conceding just three goals.

Madrid will take the victory but they will have to fight for it.
