Athletic Bilbao vs. Osasuna - prediction, lineups and free online streaming

Athletic Bilbao and Osasuna promises to be an intriguing contest, showcasing two teams with rich histories in Spanish football. Athletic Bilbao, known for their strong home advantage at San Mamés Stadium, has recently demonstrated solid form in the Copa del Rey, including a notable victory against Osasuna . The historical rivalry between these Basque clubs adds an additional layer of intensity to the encounter, making predictions about the outcome particularly compelling.

After struggling to beat Logrones in their previous Copa del Rey clash, Athletic Club’s unbeaten run was interrupted following a 2-0 loss to Barcelona in the Super Cup semi-final in Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Ernesto Valverde’s side will host Osasuna on Thursday night as they clash in the Round 16 of the Spanish Cup.

Osasuna find themselves at the heart of a real struggle. Tumbling down the La Liga table, Vicente Moreno’s side have failed to muster a single victory from any of their previous seven straight showdowns against top-flight opposition. Sacrificing their spot in the top-half of the La Liga standings, the Navarre-based outfit have also failed to record a sole win away from El Sadar since the end of October. Pencilled in as a landslide underdog when they return their attention back to Copa del Rey action on Thursday evening, the midweek guests should be concerned by their most recent meetings against Athletic Bilbao. Signing off 2024 with a 2-1 defeat when they welcomed the Lions to Navarre back on December 21st, Osasuna should have another tricky test on their hands here.
