Osasuna vs Levante Predictions

• Osasuna have netted just two first half goals in their last eight La Liga games
• Levante’s last five matches have all had more goals in the second half
• Levante have lost 10 times in 14 away league fixtures, winning just once

Osasuna have little to play for

Sitting safely in mid-table, Osasuna do not have much riding on their remaining games this season, perhaps explaining their recent patchy form of four wins in 14 games in all competitions.

Jagoba Arrasate’s side do seem to be starting games slowly, as they have struggled to score goals before the break, netting just twice in the opening 45 minutes of their last eight league games.

Indeed, their last two home La Liga fixtures have seen more goals after half-time, while they have failed to even net in three of their last four matches.

Levante desperate for points

By contrast to Osasuna’s situation, Levante really are in dire straits, six points from safety with ten games remaining and having won just once on the road this season.

Nine of their last 11 goals across 10 La Liga matches have come in the second half, while they have not scored in the first half of an away league fixture since December.

They need to start games faster – and they need to concede fewer goals, but it is also tough to see how they come out of this match with three points.

I predict there will be more goals in the second half of this game, selecting 1-0 to Osasuna as a correct score prediction.
