The Spanish Primeira division’s fresh new season started in the mid-August. But the Pucelles had to wait a month to play their first home game home the campaign. Meanwhile, during this one month period, they have taken part in 3 league fixtures away from the home. So it is certainly going to be an exciting occasion for the Valladolid fans.

Match Preview: Firstly, you can label it as the battle between the underdogs. The White and Violates finished 16th last season meanwhile Los Rojillos were crowned as the champions of Segunda division. Nevertheless, in the last 5 meetings, Osasuna holds the 3-1 lead in their favor. After tasting 3 consecutive defeats, Sergio Gonzalez’s lads finally managed to win against the Gorritxoaks in their very last meeting.
So the hosts will be pleased to recall their latest meeting as they came out victorious on that occasion. Moreover, they will play in their familiar home condition. Furthermore, the fans will be excited ahead of their first home clash of the season means their support will boost the team morale too.
However, I am smelling a good battle between the mentioned sides. It seems that there will be a close contest. Both the side will try to avoid the defeat in this fixture. So my prediction for this game is a 1-1 tie at the end of the 90 minutes.
