Granada v Osasuna Team News

The manner in which these two newly-promoted teams have adapted to life in the Spanish La Liga beats everything. With everyone expecting them to face a relegation battle this season, both sides have risen to the challenge, looking closer to the top than bottom of the standings.

In fact, these two teams who occupied the top two places in the Segunda division last season have registered a total of three losses between them in sixteen La Liga games. A more impressive fact is that two of those losses have come against Real Madrid and Sevilla, a game they were never expected to win.

Diego Martinez and his charges have been living the life in the Spanish top flight since gaining promotion last season. They had managed an unbeaten status in the league before eventually falling to defeat at the hands of Spanish giants Real Madrid. Their performance against Los Blancos left something for the supporters to savour.

They currently hold a spot in the top-four zone and will be very keen to keep a hold of that. Of course, they will have to work their asses off in order to remain in this zone as the campaign progresses. However, with their admirable show on display, it should not be considered a herculean task for them.

Their recent performances have been nothing short of exceptional and with home advantage in the books, confidence will be sky high for the Nasrids as they look to secure all three points. They are currently undefeated in 20 of their last 22 games in all competitions, and in 16 of their previous 17 on home turf.

On the other hand, the visitors have avoided defeat in just two out of their last seven games, much to the dismay of fans. They are also winless in their last three games on the road.

However, it is worth noting that Osasuna have built a defensive brick wall at the back, conceding just seven goals so far this season. A feat that even the duo of Real Madrid and Barcelona have failed to emulate.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Granada: Neyder Lozano, Fede Vico, Quini, Ángel Montoro, German Sanchez.

Osasuna: Unai García, Kike Barja, David García.
