Osasuna vs Atletico Madrid Predictions

• Atletico Madrid have started the La Liga season with three wins in five games
• Osasuna are winless in their last four contests in all competitions
• Both teams have scored in five of Osasuna’s last six games

Atleti should be in high spirits after Madrid Derby win

Atletico Madrid lifted the roof off the Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday, picking up a rare win over rivals Real Madrid, and they should be in good spirits ahead of their trip to Pamplona to face Osasuna.

Atleti had won just one of their previous 14 Madrid derbies before the weekend and it was clear how much Sunday’s victory meant to the team, who were the first side in La Liga this season to inflict defeat on Los Blancos.

Diego Simeone’s side dominated the aerial battle against Real Madrid and their cutting physical edge should give them the advantage against Osasuna.

Tough clash expected for Osasuna

The club from Pamplona are on a poor run of form, having failed to win any of their last four games – including a home contest with struggling Sevilla.

Going forwards they have looked short of ideas and that does not bode well for their clash with Atletico Madrid, who limited Real Madrid to long-range efforts last time out and have themselves racked up 13 goals in five league games.

They once again look like prime contenders for a Champions League berth and maybe more and are worth backing to defeat Osasuna.

As for a correct score prediction, Osasuna have struggled for goals but five of their last six games have seen both teams score and a 2-1 win for Atleti is the way to go at El Sadar.
