Team News

Osasuna
Leganes
  • Osasuna anticipates a complete squad except for Kike Barja, sidelined by a long-term knee injury. New coach Moreno is familiarizing himself with the team, likely giving debuts to Bretones and Zaragoza, who are set to start.
  • David Garcia's absence, having moved to Qatar, will be felt, but Osasuna maintains a familiar lineup from last season. Ante Budimir, who scored 17 La Liga goals last season, will spearhead the attack.
  • New signs like Juan Cruz, Tapia, and Rodriguez, are expected to feature from the bench for Leganes debut.
  • Despite the departure of goalkeeper Diego Conde to Villarreal, Leganes has secured the experienced LaLiga goalkeeper Marko Dmitrović, who is poised to make his debut for the club.
  • Valentin Rosier, who has arrived from Besiktas, is expected to play at right-back.
  • De la Fuente, who scored 13 goals during his loan spell last season, and Diego Garcia, with 12 goals in 2023-24, are set to start.

Prediction

  • Osasuna commences the new La Liga season against newly-promoted Leganes at Estadio El Sadar. Despite a lackluster previous season finishing 11th, they aim for a stronger start, especially under new coach Vicente Moreno to rectify their poor home form.
  • Leganes, returning to La Liga after a four-year absence, had a promising pre-season, staying unbeaten in their last three matches. Excitement surrounds new signings like Óscar Rodríguez and Marko Dmitrović, raising expectations for their season ahead.
  • While Osasuna struggled in pre-season with only one win in five friendlies, Leganes had a better run, winning two out of five matches. Both teams seek a positive start, with Leganes aiming to capitalize on their recent success and Osasuna eager to improve on their lackluster performances.
