Osasuna-Real Madrid: continuing the winning streak in LaLiga
Our team, the league leaders, aims for their ninth consecutive win at El Sadar (6:30 pm; Orange TV and Dazn).
Real Madrid faces a challenging test this evening at El Sadar in the fight for LaLiga. Arbeloa's team, who claimed the top position in the previous matchday, visit Osasuna on Matchday 25 with the goal of securing their ninth consecutive victory in the competition (6:30 pm; Orange TV and Dazn).
Achieving the 20th win in LaLiga would allow the leader, who starts the matchday two points ahead of Barcelona, to remain at the top of the table and potentially extend their lead depending on other results. One factor that could help secure three points against Osasuna is Real Madrid's excellent scoring form away from home, having scored in 11 consecutive official matches (24 goals).
“The three points at El Sadar are very important,” said Arbeloa in the press conference prior to this match, which falls between the first and second legs of the playoff for access to the Champions League round of 16 against Benfica, where Arbeloa's team secured a victory on Tuesday in the first match (0-1). For this evening's LaLiga match, our coach has called up these players.
The opponent
Osasuna is positioned mid-table before the start of the matchday and approaches this game in excellent form. The Navarrese team is unbeaten in six matches, five of which are in LaLiga (three wins and two draws). Additionally, they have not lost at El Sadar in the league since late November. Their top scorer is Budimir, who has scored 13 goals, 11 of them in LaLiga.
