Osasuna vs Numancia Prediction & Betting tips
For no one is it a secret that the two teams are even and can alternate the ball from the initial stage. For this reason and knowing that the “rojillos” added this pick in their first home games, we believe that the bet “plus 1.5 goals” is interesting to bet. Remember that the visit knows how to stand in this condition thanks to its hierarchy between the lines. Of course, he has yielded many goals in his fence, demonstrating it by registering this pick in his first 3 league outings. Paint to be an intense duel but with situations of goal for both sides.
Osasuna:
The “rojillo” team played against Sporting de Gijón in Pamplona last weekend (1-0 victory after leveling 0-0 in the first half). These days, he has 7 points in the general table, lacking greater regularity in his actions (2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses). The team has alternated several results since the tournament started, having to improve in attack and defense. Its objective is to take a positive winning streak that allows it to be placed in direct promotion positions as it happened last season. For this duel it is expected that the technician Arrasate repeat the 4-4-2 system that has been used on a regular basis, which allows his boys to be combative despite their problems at the time of elaboration.
As a local in Pamplona, Osasuna has played 3 matches so far, managing to score 7 points in total. It comes to equalize 1-1 against Elche after equaling 0-0 the initial stage, of beating Almeria 3-1 after drawing 1-1 the first time and beating Sporting as mentioned in the previous paragraph. If we analyze the performance of the team in this condition, we can conclude that it scores and that it yields goals with relative ease. You need to take advantage of the field factor to balance the balance much more and tilt it even in your favor. Only then can you overcome an opponent that is theoretically superior.
Numancia:
The team played against Almería at home in “Los Pajaritos” last weekend and lost 0-2 (0-1 in the initial stage). At the moment it has 6 units in Liga2, standing out for being an eleventh something unstable in its action (1 victory, 3 draws and 2 falls). Suffice it to know that he has scored and yielded many goals in a consistent manner to corroborate this claim. The goal of the squad in the short term is to be more balanced, because otherwise you can never win 2 or more matches consecutively. For this exit it is expected that DT Aritz López Garai will repeat the 4-3-3 system that he has been using regularly, which allows the team to be effective in attack but unsafe in defensive matters.
As a visitor, Numancia has played 3 matches so far, managing to reap 2 points out of 9 possible. It comes to equal 3-3 against the irregular Córdoba in the new Arcángel, losing 3-2 with Lugo over the final after winning 0-2 in a partial manner and equaling 1-1 against the always complicated Sporting in the Molinón. If we analyze the performance of the equipment in this condition, we can affirm that it is not balanced in its actions. Proof of this is that he has reaped the bet “both teams score” 3 times in a row.
In the last 3 and a half years, Osasuna and Numancia have met 3 times in Pamplona. These were the results of those matches: Draw 1-1 in April 2015, victory 3-2 of Osasuna in May 2016 and draw 2-2 in December 2017. Apparently, each time both tables are faced, always there are goals in between. Considering this, we believe that the pattern can be extended once more, being feasible that the “both teams score” option is also made concrete.
