Osasuna will host Atletico Madrid at home, Estadio El Sadar stadium on 19th Feb, Matchday 25 of La Liga.

Prediction

By recent forms and performance, it’s hard to convince that Atletico will bring 3 points home when Osasuna hosts them this weekend.

However, Osasuna has always struggled against Atleti in the past 2 seasons. There’s a chance that Rojiblancos will earn 3 points this game.
