The final match to be played in La Liga before the international break takes place on the 3rd of September as Osasuna meet Barcelona.

The game will be played at the Estadio El Sadar and the hosts begin the weekend in 7th place on 6 points while the visitors are in 4th place on 7 points.

Osasuna come into the game having been held to a 2-2 draw at Club Brugge in the Europa Conference League Playoffs. Osasuna will be disappointed with the result having been 2-0 up in the 53rd minute only to concede 2 goals which means they have been eliminated from the competition before the group stage.

The draw means Osasuna have won 1 of their last 4 competitive matches this season. The win came away at Valencia in La Liga last weekend.

Osasuna were leading 1-0 at half time but conceded the equaliser in the 80th minute. However, there was still time for Osasuna to score the winner and they found the back of the net in the 5th minute of added time.

Trends show Osasuna have won 3 of their last 4 La Liga fixtures. They have seen over 2.5 goals scored in their last 3 matches in all competitions and Osasuna have won 5 of their 7 most recent home league games.

Barcelona make the trip to the Estadio El Sadar on the back of a thrilling 4-3 win at Villarreal in La Liga last weekend. Having led 2-0 in only 15 minutes, Barcelona found themselves 3-2 down early in the second half.

However, Barcelona came back strongly and equalised in the 68th minute before scoring the winner 3 minutes later.

The win at Villarreal means Barcelona are undefeated in the league this season. They have won 2 and drawn 1 of their 3 La Liga matches, beating Cadiz 2-0 at home and being held to a 0-0 draw at Getafe on the opening weekend of the season.

Trends show Barcelona are undefeated in 35 of their last 41 league games. However, they have won only 3 of their last 7 La Liga matches and just 1 of their 4 most recent away trips in the league.

Barcelona are undefeated in their last 7 away games against Osasuna in La Liga and are on a run of 3 consecutive wins against them in the league.

Team news and Osasuna have just one player who is confirmed as unavailable and Darko Brasanac misses out due to a knee injury.

Barcelona travel without the injured quartet of Andreas Christensen, Pedri, Ronald Araujo, and Íñigo Martinez.

Osasuna will be disappointed to have exited Europe early and their week could be about to get worse.

Barcelona know they cannot afford to fall further behind the leaders and should come out on top in this one, winning the match and keeping a clean sheet in the process.
