Two of La Liga‘s leakier sides meet at El Sadar, with Osasuna and Rayo Vallecano both shipping goals freely in the early weeks. Osasuna have lost their last three heavily, while Rayo have been involved in plenty of open games, so Saturday lunchtime could be a lively one.

Anthony Eadson’s Osasuna vs Rayo predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson expects goals at both ends in an open game.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Both teams to score4/5 (bet365)Neither of these sides has kept things tight this season. Osasuna have conceded twelve goals in six games and shipped four at Atletico last time out, while Rayo have leaked fifteen and boast the free-scoring Sergio Camello, already on six for the campaign. Both carry a genuine threat and both have obvious flaws at the back, so goals at either end look the likeliest outcome. At 4/5, both teams to score is the percentage play in a game between two open, high-tempo sides.
Alvaro Garcia to score anytime7/2 (Paddy Power)Rayo’s Alvaro Garcia has been one of their most dangerous performers, already chipping in with two goals and two assists from the left. Osasuna have been badly exposed at the back lately, conceding four to Atletico and losing their last three, so the chances will come for the visitors. Garcia loves to drift inside and get shots away, and at 7/2 for the winger to get on the scoresheet against a leaky Osasuna, there is real value in a game that should be stretched.

How Osasuna go into the game

Osasuna have fallen away after a bright start, losing their last three including a 4-0 hammering at Atletico and a 2-0 home defeat to Espanyol. The defence has been the problem.

Blunt in front of goal but reliant on Ante Budimir, who has four goals, Osasuna badly need to tighten up at the back.

How Rayo Vallecano go into the game

Rayo have been up and down, beating Espanyol 2-1 last time but leaking heavily, with fifteen conceded in six. Sergio Camello has been in fine form with six goals.

Entertaining but leaky, Rayo carry a real threat through Camello and Alvaro Garcia and will fancy this open game.
