Premium Tips
Andy is with the hosts, whose El Sadar backing and greater physicality should tell against Levante.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Osasuna to win, under 2.5 goals and Ante Budimir to score anytime | 27/4 | El Sadar has been a fortress for Osasuna in this fixture, and with both sides fighting to stay clear of the relegation zone, this looks set to be a tense, tightly contested afternoon rather than an end-to-end thriller. Osasuna won this exact meeting 2-0 at home last season, and their physical approach combined with a vociferous crowd should again prove too much for a Levante side with a poor recent record at this ground. Budimir leads the Osasuna line and remains their most reliable source of goals, so with the hosts expected to have the better of the chances in a low-scoring contest, backing him to open the scoring alongside the win and under 2.5 goals looks a sound combination. |
| Ivan Romero and Kike Barja over 0.5 shots on target, Ante Budimir over 1.5 shots on target | 6/1 | Romero and Barja have emerged as key attacking outlets in Osasuna’s side this season, offering energy and direct running to complement Budimir’s focal-point threat, and with the hosts expected to dominate territory at El Sadar, chances for each to get shots away should arrive throughout the game. Budimir is the focal point of everything Osasuna do in the final third, and against a Levante defence set up to soak up pressure for long spells, he should have enough sight of goal to clear 1.5 shots on target on his own. With the home crowd driving Osasuna forward and Levante likely to spend much of the afternoon defending, backing all three attacking outlets to test the goalkeeper looks a strong angle. |

How Osasuna go into the game
Osasuna finished 17th last season on 42 points, a campaign closer to the drop than they would have liked. El Sadar remains a fortress and home form will be central to their survival hopes.
Ante Budimir leads the line and gives them a genuine goal threat. Making home advantage count against a fellow strugglers is the clear priority.
How Levante go into the game
Levante finished 16th last season on 42 points, doing enough to preserve their top-flight status. Another battle towards safety looks the likely story this term.
The visitors carry a threat on their day but have a poor recent record at El Sadar. Keeping it tight and staying in the game is the realistic plan.
