Current streaks

Recent form

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol are currently struggling in 18th position in La Liga, with their recent form reflecting their precarious situation. The team have lost four of their last six matches across all competitions, including a disappointing Copa del Rey exit to lower-league Barbastro. Their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 11 goals in their last six games and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last five outings. However, Espanyol have shown some attacking prowess, scoring nine goals in this period, with a particularly high-scoring 4-1 victory over San Tirso in the Copa del Rey. Their matches tend to be goal-heavy affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. Despite their struggles, Espanyol did manage an impressive 3-1 win over RC Celta in their most recent La Liga fixture, offering a glimmer of hope amidst their challenging run of form.

Osasuna

Osasuna have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, currently sitting in a respectable 7th position in La Liga. Their last six matches have been characterised by high-scoring affairs, with an impressive 83% of games seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's attacking prowess is evident, averaging 2.17 goals per game, but their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 1.83 goals per match. Notably, Osasuna have struggled to keep clean sheets, with their last one coming five games ago. Their most recent outing, a 2-2 draw with Deportivo Alavés, exemplifies their tendency for entertaining, goal-filled encounters. The standout result in this period was undoubtedly their 5-0 thrashing of Chiclana in the Copa del Rey, showcasing their potential for dominant performances. However, they also suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Real Madrid, highlighting some inconsistency in their form.

In La Liga, they've managed to secure points in three out of their last four away fixtures, including a notable 2-0 victory against Real Sociedad.
