Real Madrid vs. Osasuna Odds
Game Preview
Things didn’t go well in the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States, but that was just the beginning for Xabi Alonso, who used that tournament to create chemistry in the team.
After that competition, Real had just one friendly, against Tirol, whom they defeated 4-0. The rest of the time was spent practicing and synchronizing the team. After all, everyone has to adapt to Alonso’s system now.

Osasuna didn’t play well during the preseason, posting rather disappointing results, despite not losing in their last two events. The first was against Miandes, 3-0, while the second resulted in a 2-2 tie against Freiburg, marking the final test ahead of the season.
As for the results before that, they included three losses and a tie. We saw them play 1-1 against Lorient, and then lose to Huesca, Real Sociedad and Racing Santander.
Real Madrid vs. Osasuna Head to Head
Real hasn’t lost to Osasuna in the past 23 games. Last year, we saw them beat this rival 4-0 at home and then play to a 1-1 draw on the road in Pamplona.
Real Madrid vs. Osasuna Predictions
The home team will win here without any trouble, and we pick Real to cover a 1.5-goal spread.
