Real Sociedad will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Girona, which ran out a 0-0 draw.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 52%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Girona, who had 11 shots on goal with 3 on target.  

Manager Imanol Alguacil will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 3 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points.  They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games; however, they're currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets overall.  

There will be mixed feelings from Txuri-Urdin, although undefeated in their last 4 league games at home, 3 of these games ended in a draw.

On the back of a tough 3-0 home defeat by Celta Vigo, Osasuna manager Jagoba Arrasate will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.  In that game they had 70% possession and managed 18 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Celta Vigo who had 6 attempts and 5 on target.  

They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.  

Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 7 games.  

Ante Budimir will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Real Sociedad in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Osasuna.
