Osasuna Team News
In the last competitive match, Osasuna played a draw against Club Brugge away from home in the qualifiers for the Conference League with a score of 2:2. They took the lead in the 27th minute of the match with a goal by Johan Mojica, and they doubled their advantage in the 53rd minute with a goal by Ante Budimir. However, they failed to save the result, and in the 73rd and 76th minutes, the home team equalized.
In the first match, Osasuna lost 1:2 and thus they were eliminated from further European competitions. After three rounds played in the league, they achieved two victories over Valencia and Celta, and one defeat against Athletic Bilbao. In the preparatory period, they played seven friendly matches, with five wins and two losses. Last season, they finished seventh in the table with 53 points, seven less than sixth-placed Betis.
Osasuna will again be without the services of Darko Brašanc due to a long-term knee injury, but the home team is otherwise in good shape ahead of the competition.
Ezequiel Avila is likely to return to the squad after serving his suspension against Valencia, while changes are expected in the squad that started against Club Brugge on Thursday. Aimar Oroz, Jesus Areso, Kike Barja, and Ruben Garcia are in line to return, but the likes of Sergio Herrera and David Garcia will retain their places in the starting XI.
Buenos días, rojillos.

Barcelona Team News
In the last match of LaLiga, Barcelona defeated Villarreal away with 3:4. By the 15th minute, they had a double lead with goals from Gavi and Frenkie de Jong. However, by the end of the first half, the home team managed to equalize, and at the beginning of the second half of the game, they completely turned the score in their favor. In the 68th minute, Ferran Torres scored for Barcelona and equalized, while Robert Lewandowski scored the final score three minutes later.
Before that meeting, Barcelona drew with Getafe 0:0 and beat Cadiz 2:0. During the preparatory period, they played five friendly matches, with four wins and one loss. Last season, they won the LaLiga title with 88 points.
Barcelona could potentially have Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix in their squad, with loan deals for both players completed on Friday night. Raphinha is back from suspension and should be back in the squad, but Ronald Araujo and Pedri are still sidelined through injury.
Inigo Martínez is also a serious doubt due to an ongoing foot problem, and, likely, the stopper will not be put at risk before the international break. Coach Xavi has decisions to make when it comes to squad selection, but there is likely to be another starting spot for Lamine Yamal, who excelled against Villarreal in the last outing, with Gavi possibly the player to sit on the bench for Raphinh could enter the game.

Osasuna vs Barcelona Prediction
Barcelona is the clear favorite in this match due to the better mutual score, form, and position in the table. Despite Osasuna’s home-field advantage, it is unlikely that they will be able to achieve a positive result. Therefore, we predict a victory for the guests, noting that at least two goals will be scored in the entire match.
