Osasuna vs Deportivo Alaves Match Prediction
This may be tricky to predict. Alaves are much higher in the table than Osasuna, but the hosts have at least been netting goals, even if they’re struggling to keep them out.
Alaves, meanwhile, haven’t exactly been prolific, scoring just three goals in their last five league games.
Osasuna will probably find the net – but won’t stop Alaves from scoring in return.
