Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson is with Osasuna, and Budimir to keep firing at El Sadar.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Osasuna to win6/5Osasuna are always tough at El Sadar and have Ante Budimir in red-hot form, the striker already on four goals for the campaign. They sit eighth with two wins from four, while Espanyol have won just once and lost two of their last three on the road. Backing the hosts to make their home advantage and superior firepower count at odds against makes plenty of sense.
Ante Budimir to be first goalscorer4/1Budimir has been on fire with four goals in four games and is Osasuna’s clear focal point, on the end of everything at El Sadar. Against an Espanyol defence that has conceded in most of its outings this season, 4/1 about the big Croatian breaking the deadlock is a strong price for the game’s obvious danger man.

How Osasuna go into the game

Osasuna were beaten 5-2 at Alaves last time out, a chastening afternoon. El Sadar must roar them back to winning ways.

Physical and hard to beat at home, Osasuna will fancy their chances. A response is the aim.

How Espanyol go into the game

Espanyol drew 1-1 with Sevilla last time out, a battling home point. They travel to Pamplona in decent order.

Well-organised and stubborn, Espanyol will look to frustrate Osasuna. A point at El Sadar would be a good return.
