Villarreal visit the El Sadar Stadium to face Osasuna in La Liga on Sunday (March 19), looking to extend their unbeaten league run to four games.
After losing four straight games between January and February, the Yellow Submarine have avoided defeat in their next three top-flight outings to climb up to sixth in the standings with 38 points from 25 games.
However, Quique Setien’s side weren’t able to continue this form in Europe, getting knocked out of the UEFA Europa League against Anderlecht. The Belgian side prevailed 1-0 at the Estadio de la Ceramica on Thursday (March 16), courtesy of a late strike from Islam Slimani, to win 2-1 on aggregate and advance to the quarterfinals.
Osasuna, meanwhile, are ninth in La Liga, having accrued only four points fewer than Villarreal. They’re coming off a narrow 1-0 loss to Valencia. Los Rojillos have won just one win – 3-2 at Sevilla last month – in their last eight league games. Moroccan star Abde Ezzalzouli scored an 87th-minute winner in the Sevilla win.
