Command Analysis
Valencia
SpainCurrent Form
Valencia secured their first victory of the season with a 2-0 win over Girona on Saturday, but their four points from six matches mark the worst start since the 1999/00 season, despite finishing third that year. Tuesday's clash against Osasuna presents the opportunity for Los Ches to build on their strong record of three wins in the last four encounters and potentially achieve back-to-back victories at Mestalla for the first time since February.
Injuries and Suspensions
Diakabi (knee injury), Domenech (muscle injury), Gayà (muscle injury), Duro (muscle injury), and Pérez (injury) will be unavailable for today’s match.
Betting Trends to Note
- Dani Gomez scored for Valencia during his full home debut over the weekend, which means he has won seven of his last eight matches in which he found the net.
- Ruben Baraja's squad has lost all ten La Liga matches in 2024 in which they trailed 0-1.
Expected Lineup: Mamardashvili – Vasquez, Tarrega, Garciarovski, Correa – Almeida, Guillamon, Pepelu, Tegion – Rioja, Gomez.
Osasuna
SpainCurrent Form
Osasuna has experienced a mix of wins and losses in their last five matches, which raises concerns as they recently defeated Las Palmas 2-1. They have secured all ten points this season at their home ground, El Sadar, indicating potential challenges on the road, highlighted by a shaky defense that conceded seven goals in two away matches this season. Historically, the visit to Valencia has been mostly favorable for Los Rojillos, as they have lost just once in their last four away encounters against them.
Suspensions and Injuries
Today, Barja (knee injury) and Muñoz (foot injury) will be unavailable to play.
Interesting Betting Trends
- Osasuna has not scored a goal before the 20th minute in their last eight league matches.
- The Blaugrana have won only three of their last 17 away games.
Projected Lineup: Herrera – Errando, Areso, Catena, Cruz – Garcia, Moncayola, Torro, Gomez – Budimir, Oroz.
