La Liga Leadership Awaits Atlético Madrid

With Real Madrid busy in the Spanish Super Cup held in Saudi Arabia, Atlético Madrid has a golden opportunity to ascend to the top of La Liga.

First, however, “Atleti” must overcome the challenge of hosting Osasuna, a team that triumphed 4-1 in their last visit to the Spanish capital in May. Osasuna is aiming to achieve back-to-back away wins against Atlético for the first time in 21 years.

The visitors face a tough task against a rising Atlético Madrid, who have regained their form and more, winning their last seven La Liga matches. Meanwhile, Osasuna has failed to secure a single victory in their last six league games.

Atlético’s strength lies in their abundance of goal scorers: from Julián Álvarez and Antoine Griezmann to Alexander Sørloth and midfielder Rodrigo De Paul, who has recently shown remarkable goal-scoring prowess.

Here are some key indicators to help you predict the outcome and win with Betway:

• Atlético Madrid lost their last match against Osasuna 1-4 in May, snapping an 11-match winning streak against them in La Liga. Atlético hasn’t lost two consecutive league matches to Osasuna since October 2009.
• Osasuna’s 4-1 win in their last visit to Atlético was only the second time they earned points in back-to-back away games against “Los Rojiblancos” (a win and a draw between 1989-1990 and again in 2003-2004).
• Osasuna has picked up points in two of their last four La Liga visits to teams from Madrid (a win and a draw, with two losses) after losing all six previous such matches.
• Atlético Madrid has won their last seven La Liga matches. The last time they achieved eight or more consecutive wins was in January 2021 (eight wins).
• Osasuna hasn’t won any of their last six La Liga matches (four draws and two losses). The last time they endured a seven-match winless streak in the top tier was in December 2021 (10 matches: five draws and five losses).
• Lucas Torró has scored three goals in 17 La Liga matches this season, equaling his total from the previous four seasons combined in the top tier (three goals in 119 matches).
• Osasuna has dropped 23 points from winning positions in La Liga during 2024, the highest of any team in this period.
• Rodrigo De Paul has scored three goals in his last four La Liga matches, matching his total from in his previous 53 league appearances.
• Only Robert Lewandowski (27) has scored more La Liga goals than Alexander Sørloth (25) in 2024. The Norwegian also leads the league in headed goals this year (7).
• Osasuna coach Vicente Moreno has a 100% loss rate in four La Liga matches against Atlético Madrid (alongside Rayo Vallecano). His upcoming match against “Atleti” will also be his 100th as a La Liga coach.
