"Getafe will aim to maintain their encouraging start to the season when they travel to El Sadar on Friday evening to face Osasuna. The visitors currently occupy eighth place in the La Liga table with 11 points from seven matches, while the hosts sit 13th, having collected seven points over the same number of fixtures. Osasuna have managed two wins, one draw and four defeats so far, with their tally of seven points leaving them in the lower half of the standings."
"Ninth place last season saw them narrowly miss out on European qualification, and the target this year will be to push back into that bracket. However, finding the net has proved troublesome, with only five goals scored in seven matches. At the same time, their defensive record remains steady, with just seven conceded. History is also against them heading into Friday's fixture: Osasuna have won only 12 of their 44 meetings with Getafe and suffered a 2-1 defeat in this fixture last season."
Getafe sit eighth with 11 points from seven matches and travel to El Sadar to face Osasuna, who are 13th with seven points. Osasuna have two wins, one draw and four defeats, with recent form yielding only one point from the last three matches. Scoring has been difficult for Osasuna, with five goals in seven games, while the defense has conceded seven. Injured midfielder Aimar Oroz remains sidelined, but Ante Budimir leads the attack with two goals. Getafe have dominated recent head-to-head meetings, losing only once in the last 12 encounters and beat Osasuna 2-1 last season.
