Las Palmas vs Osasuna prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2025-01-23 20:00.
[p]It’s been the worst possible start to 2025 for Las Palmas, who’ve lost all three of their games to kick off the new year, including back-to-back La Liga defeats. With many relegation-threatened sides near them in the table grabbing vital victories last weekend, the Canary Islanders’ cushion to the relegation spots is now just three points heading into the upcoming round of fixtures, making this encounter with Osasuna feel like a significant moment in their fight for survival.[/p]
[p]Not only have Las Palmas lost as many matches this month (three) as they had in the previous three, but perhaps most worryingly, they have conceded ten goals in those recent defeats, having leaked just 11 in as many contests prior. Facing Osasuna offers no promise of a respite either, as they failed to beat them last season – part of a four-game winless H2H run (D2, L2). Â [/p]
[p]With just one La Liga away victory so far this term, Osasuna haven’t been the best travellers, as approaching the matchday, only 18th-placed Espanyol have managed fewer away goals (four) in the division than their five. It’s little surprise therefore that they’re on a four-game winless run on the road in the Spanish top tier (D2, L2), having scored just once in that time! [/p]
[p]Sitting a comfortable seven points above the bottom three approaching the weekend, tenth-placed Osasuna will be looking to restore some pride in their season against a side managed by an ex-manager, Diego MartĂnez. But if their dire form continues, the relegation zone could quickly move into view, as their eight-match winless streak (D5, L3) is the worst in La Liga currently and their worst since going ten league games without a victory in January 2022![/p]
[p]Players to watch: Sandro RamĂrez provided an assist last Sunday at Real Madrid as part of a sequence which has seen him grab five goal contributions (G4, A1) from his last six outings, while he also assisted at Osasuna earlier this season. Ante Budimir scored from the penalty spot in that match – a 2-1 win for the home side – and also grabbed a brace in his last away display. [/p]
[p]Hot stat: Osasuna haven’t struck a league goal in the last 20 minutes of normal time since September![/p]
