Osasuna vs Getafe
Match preview
Osasuna have won seven, drawn 12 and lost seven of their 26 league games this term, picking up 33 points to sit 14th in the standings, seven points clear of the relegation zone and four points clear of seventh-placed Mallorca.
Los Rojillos go into the game off the back of a 3-3 draw with Valencia and have shared the points in three of their last four matches, also drawing with Mallorca and Real Madrid.
Vicente Moreno's side have not won in La Liga since the start of February and have been the draw specialists in La Liga this term, sharing the points 12 times in their 26 games.
Osasuna have been strong in front of their home fans this season, picking up 24 points from 14 games, but Getafe have a decent away record this term, with 14 points from 13 away games.
Los Rojillos recorded a 3-2 victory over Getafe in the corresponding fixture last season, but the points were shared in a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture this term.
However, Getafe have won three of their last five league games against Osasuna, with their last away win coming in September 2022.
The Deep Blue have eight wins, nine draws and 10 defeats from 27 league games this term, with 33 points to their name, and sit 12th in the standings.
Jose Bordalas' side are level on points with Osasuna, while they are four points behind Mallorca in seventh, and the middle of the table is incredibly crowded, with four points separating seventh and 14th.
Getafe come into this game on the back of an excellent run of form, having beaten Atletico 2-1 in front of their own fans last weekend, while they have won three of their last five league games.
The capital side have only lost twice in the Spanish top flight since the winter break and should be looking up rather than down at this stage of the season, with a top-half finish well within their grasp.

Team News
Osasuna are hopeful that Aimar Oroz will shake off a muscle problem in time to feature, while Jesus Areso should also be fit, but Aitor Fernandez will miss out with a foot injury.
Oroz scored a brace against Valencia last time out and his absence would be a huge miss, so Osasuna will wait as long as possible before deciding whether the Spaniard can start.
Ante Budimir is another player who has enjoyed a fine season, scoring 14 times in La Liga during the 2024-25 campaign, and the Croatian will once again operate in the final third of the field.
As for Getafe, Yellu Santiago will be suspended for the yellow card he received against Atletico last weekend, but otherwise the visitors are in excellent shape to face Osasuna.
Coach Bordalas is expected to name most of the players who started against Atletico, but there could be a change at centre-forward, with Borja Mayoral possibly replacing Alvaro Rodriguez.
Mauro Arambarri scored twice from central midfield against Atletico and the number eight will be back in the XI, while Coba is also expected to start on the left.
Possible starting lineup
Osasuna possible starting lineup:
Herrera; Areso, Boyomo, Catena, Bretones; Moncayola, Torro; Ruben Garcia, Oroz, Zaragoza; Budimir
Getafe possible starting lineup:
Soria; Dakonam, Duarte, Alderete, Rico; Terrats, Uche, Milla, Arambarri, Coba; Mayoral
