OSA Vs ALA Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Osasuna find themselves in the relegation zone as the side loses all semblance about itself.
The way things were going for Osasuna, it wasn’t going to be long before the club found itself back in familiar territory. Having made the relegation zone their home for a slew of seasons now, the club is once again back in the bottom three this season as well.
Although they did manage to put the breaks on a four match losing spree with a 2-2 draw against Elche the last time around, the result did little to improve Osasuna’s overall situation. The club has plummeted all the way down to 19th spot with the team being pummelled by anyone it takes on.
This is just the side Deportivo Alaves would have wanted to square off against. With a win in their ranks the last time around, the visiting team makes a foray into this clash with wind in their sails, momentum which will be a massive shot in the arm for the team in this tie.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Ruben Martinez’s showing the last time around was the only reason Eibar were able to pull off a draw as he parried away almost everything directed his way.
Defenders
Although Osasuna have managed to forage goals in their favour off late, the club continues to remain one of the most torrid attacking units in the league. The side has scored on a measly 13 occasions, a club Deportivo Alaves can easily pull off a cleansheet against.
It’s a narrative which sees us entrust Victor Laguardia, Ximo Navarro and Florian Lejeune for the tie.
Midfielders
Contributing the most to his side’s attacking plays, Ruben Garcia has conjured up the three goals and two assists to make him our first pick from the home team. He’s going to be joined up by Roberto Torres who has pulled off the three goals as well.
The opposition will see two goal man Edgar Mendez Ortega and Tomas Pina make a way into our docket.
Strikers
Two goal man Joselu and Deyverson Silva Acosta who has the two assists will be completing the quartet of attacking picks from the club. The hosts on the other hand will see us roll in Ante Budimir for the outing owing to the two strikes he’s recorded.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Joselu’s two goals see him step into our team as the captain while Garcia is the vice-captain.
Fantasy Team
Martinez, Navarro, Lejeune, Laguardia, Pina, Garcia, Torres, Edgar, Joselu, Budimir, Acosta
