Osasuna vs Getafe Preview

The final league game on Saturday comes from El Sadar and it’s not exactly too much of an appetiser for the Copa del Rey Final later in the evening. It features two bottom half sides in the shape of Osasuna and Getafe who will know that victory here would see them put real distance between themselves and the relegation zone, most likely all but securing safety in the process.
With 18th place Eibar currently on 23 points with 10 games to play, it’s unlikely to take 40 points to stay up this season. Osasuna would move onto 33 with a victory in this match and they’d perhaps only need to record one more win to secure their place in LaLiga 2021/22 which ultimately was their primary objective in what can be that awkward second season back in the top flight.
Their recent matches haven’t exactly been ones that have set the pulses racing. Their last 6 league games have produced just 6 goals in total, only 2 of them scored by Osasuna. However they have still managed to collect 8 points during that period, with 1-0 away wins at Alaves and Levante putting them well on the road to safety.
There was a time when Getafe were similarly capable of putting plenty of points on the board, primarily by virtue of their defensive qualities but they’ve found it more difficult this term. They were on a really miserable run of form earlier in the year, however appear to have turned something of a corner of late with just 1 defeat in their last 4 matches.
They didn’t exactly go into the international break on a high, with a 1-1 home draw against Elche suggesting there is still plenty of improvement needed but Jose Bordalas’ side no longer look like they are in immediate relegation danger with a number of equally unconvincing sides below them in the table. They’ll probably be content to keep accumulating draws in games like this and look to rebuild in the summer.

This has all the makings of one of the worst games of the season. Both sides look short on quality and creativity in the final third and even if there are chances, you wouldn’t necessarily back their forwards to put them away. Osasuna will be the slight favourites but a goalless draw certainly looks a very possible outcome, particularly given the recent history of this fixture!
