Predicted Result: Osasuna 0 – 4 Barcelona

Match Preview: Firstly, it will be the previous season’s La Liga champions vs Segunda Division champions. So you may expect it to be a cracker. But logically I don’t see a competitive match on the card. The Blaugaranas are simply unstoppable in the Spanish top flight. Although Los Rojillos will have the home crowd behind them, it will be so much tough for them to get something from this match.

I am suspecting that Jagoba Arrasate will go with defensive tactics. He may put 5 instead of 4 defenders at the back for this encounter. Nevertheless, their keeper will have a tough day at the office against the world-class Barca attack.

Conversely, The Catalans are aiming their 27th league title. So they will go with an ultra attacking mode for sure. In addition to this, their deadly attack consisting of Messi, Griezmann, Suarez will put any team under pressure. Argentine sensation Leo Messi once again will be the key for them.

My prediction is a 4-0 victory for the visiting side. I am also guessing a Leo Messi brace in this game.
