Osasuna vs Villarreal Preview
Villarreal Travel to El Sadar Saturday with the yellow submarine seeking to maintain their start in the countryside. They face one side of Osasuna that begins to look like a serious danger of relegation with results and performances that have not been important in recent weeks.
Indeed, Osasuna is the bottom of the Laliga club in this game after Huesca claimed their first victory of the season last weekend. Given only 3 points of Valencia in 12th, it's not exactly a reason to panic, but the recent results have not been good and there is not a lot of a sign that they could possibly transform things .
It's just a six-game point now for the Pamplona and who came home for his colleagues Huesca. After having lost an avila hole in another long-term injury on the eve of the season, the key goals would always be a bit of a problem for them, but the most disturbing for Jagoba herself, they even have even Not seemingly defensively in the recent weeks, with 9 conceded in their last 3 games of the league.
Villarreal certainly has the tools to make them pay if there are more defensive mistakes here. In the absence of Paco Alcacer, the best scorer Gérard Moreno is likely to play in the middle and will be the focal point of the threat of the visit visit.
Other injuries can see Kubo do what would be only his 3rd league start of the season. Some speak that Real Madrid Chapee can be recalled in January and moved to another club for more game time, but the party period could give young Japanese the chance to cement in the first choice of EAI Emery .
Villarreal lost once in 20 competitive games this season, which is an exceptional record because they start a new era under an Emery. However, it is four draws from the right league for the yellow submarine in Laliga and will have to begin to convert one point in three more often if they will be serious four contenders.

Osasuna vs Villarreal Prediction
The position of Osasuna on the table shows its shape in the countryside this season. It is close to no hope for the home team, despite the ground advantage in the luminaire. In addition, they are on a series of losers for the last three games of their campaign schedule.
Villarreal dropped points in their last four clashes of the league. However, the draws did not affect their unsupported race in the calendar. Consecutive draws in their form suggest fragile defense in the middle of yellow submarines.
Even if the match is sizing to be a tight meeting, we can expect a few goals in ninety minutes for the next clash on Saturday night. The tip of more than 1.5 goals will probably be the best bet for the punters of the meeting.
The drawing without bet on Villarreal is probably the ideal choice to give decent returns in the game. The free team has a decent form on the road and their strength of the team is better than the league host this season.
