Barcelona can clinch the La Liga title this weekend with a victory over Osasuna at Estadio El Sadar. They also need Real Madrid to lose against Espanyol to secure the championship.
As of midday, Barcelona sits 11 points clear of second-placed Real Madrid. The Catalan side boasts an impressive record of 28 wins, one draw, and four defeats in their 33 league matches this season.
Osasuna is currently ninth in the La Liga table, just two points off sixth-placed Getafe. They have recorded 11 wins, nine draws, and 13 defeats this season.
Osasuna has performed well at home, gathering 32 points from 16 matches and achieving nine victories. However, they have only won 21 of their previous 100 encounters against Barcelona.
Ante Budimir leads Osasuna’s attack with 16 goals in 32 appearances this season. Meanwhile, Barcelona has enjoyed the best away record in La Liga, earning 34 points from their travels.
Lamine Yamal is out for the season due to a hamstring injury, while Jules Kounde is suspended after receiving a yellow card against Getafe.
Barcelona has won their last nine league matches, showcasing their dominance as they approach the end of the season. Observers expect them to continue this winning streak against Osasuna.
Historically, Barcelona defeated Osasuna 2-0 in their earlier meeting this season. In September 2024, however, Osasuna managed a surprising 4-2 victory over Barcelona.
The stakes are high for both teams. Barcelona aims for the title while Osasuna seeks European qualification as they sit close to the top six.
