The Matchday 25 La Liga clash between Osasuna and Real Madrid will take place on 21 February at El Sadar in Pamplona. Osasuna vs Real Madrid: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Osasuna
A week ago Osasuna held Elche to a goalless draw away from home. That result extended the club's unbeaten run in La Liga to five matches (three wins, two draws). It is also worth noting that the home side kept a clean sheet in this competition for the first time in seven matches since the start of 2026. Across the last 11 league rounds, the team have suffered just two defeats, and both were away from home. At home, the hosts have avoided defeat in five straight La Liga games, winning three of those five. Osasuna sit right in mid-table, five points off the European places and six points clear of 18th, which would mean relegation to the Segunda Division.
- Both teams scored in seven of the previous nine home matches played by the Pamplona club in the Spanish top flight.
- The club's scoring run on home soil in La Liga now stands at 31 matches.
- At least two goals were scored in 10 of Osasuna's last 12 La Liga matches.
Potential Osasuna Lineup (4-2-3-1)*
Sergio Herrera – Valentin Rosier, Jorge Herrando, Alejandro Catena, Javier Galan – Iker Munoz, Lucas Torro – Victor Munoz, Ruben Garcia, Aimar Oroz – Ante Budimir.
Defender Enzo Boyomo and midfielder Iker Benito are not fit for the match due to injury.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid are extending a winning streak that has now reached eight matches in the Spanish top flight. Last weekend the away team thrashed Real Sociedad at home (4:1). After that result, the Madrid club moved top of the table for the first time since November. Real Madrid now lead Barcelona by two points. Notably, in each of the last eight La Liga matches the team have scored at least two goals, and overall they have 53 goals in the competition this season—only Barcelona have more (64).
- Real Madrid are unbeaten in eight straight away La Liga matches (five wins, three draws).
- The club's run of decisive results in the league has reached 10 games (nine wins, one defeat).
- At least two goals have been scored in 12 consecutive matches involving the team in this competition.
Potential Real Madrid Lineup (4-4-2)*
Thibaut Courtois – Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, Antonio Rudiger, Alvaro Carreras – Aurelien Tchouameni, Arda Guler, Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga – Gonzalo Garcia, Vinicius Junior.
Forward Rodrygo, midfielder Jude Bellingham and defender Eder Militao will miss the match through injury.

Osasuna vs Real Madrid: Match Prediction
Osasuna are maintaining a very solid level of form. Over the last couple of months the team have lost only one of their last eight league matches, and the current unbeaten run in this competition stands at five games. However, the Pamplona club now welcome the current leaders, who have historically been an awkward opponent. Osasuna have not beaten Real Madrid in La Liga since 2011, with 15 of the 21 matches in that period ending in defeat. Even at home, Osasuna have managed to take at least a point in just two of the last seven head-to-head meetings in La Liga.
Real Madrid have not slipped up in the Spanish league since 7 December, and thanks to that run they recently reclaimed top spot in the table. Their winning streak in La Liga has reached eight matches, and it is telling that in every one of those games the team have consistently scored at least two goals. Even if away fixtures have generally proved a little tougher than home matches, the club have still posted a perfect record in four La Liga away games since the start of winter.
Prediction: Real Madrid to win
