Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán is the venue Sevilla and Osasuna go head-to-head in a top-seven La Liga encounter.
Based on Sevilla’s home performances this season, late VAR’s intervention to cancel out their last-gasp winner against Mallorca in midweek (1-1 draw) looks like a minor setback in their top-table charge. Indeed, the Andalusian heavyweights have won each of their four La Liga home fixtures this season by a margin of 2+ goals, including a 5-3 thumping of Levante in their most recent league outing at Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. Another victory here would see Sevilla make a perfect five-game home start to a new La Liga season for the first time since 2016/17. Julen Lopetegui’s men are not short of confidence, especially considering they are undefeated in 11 consecutive top-flight home meetings with Osasuna (W10, D1), winning the last eight in a row. Sevilla’s free-scoring form across that 11-game sequence saw them find the net on each occasion, averaging 1.9 goals per match.
In the meantime, Osasuna’s heroic midweek display in the capital saw them hold Real Madrid to a goalless draw and keep a two-point deficit on fourth-placed Real Betis. However, the visitors have gone from a three-match winning run in La Liga to back-to-back low-scoring stalemates, which is not a good sign ahead of this trip. In fact, ‘Los Rojillos’ last kept a clean sheet in an away La Liga encounter against Sevilla in February 2006, going 11 consecutive top-flight visits to Andalusia without a single shutout since then. On the bright side, though, Jagoba Arrasate’s men have yet to lose an away La Liga fixture this season (W4, D1), though it has little to do with their defensive qualities. Osasuna have conceded at least once in two of their last three league travels.
