Osasuna possible 11:
Herrera, Vidal, Garcia, Cruz, Sanchez, Torro, Moncayola, Avila, Brasanac, Angel and Kike
Atletico Madrid possible 11:
Oblak, Reinildo, Giménez, Savic, Vrsaljko, Lemar, Kondogbia, Koke, Llorente, Suárez and Correa
Prediction: Osasuna 1-2 Atletico Madrid
We expect this to be a closely fought affair given the form of either side.
Osasuna have the third worst home record this season which gives the visitors a sense of relief as Atletico need to get their form up and going ahead of the UCL next week and we see them gaining an edgy win in this one.
Atletico’s quality could be difficult to handle for the hosts.
Players to watch out for: Brasanac, Kike, Koke and Llorente.
