Barcelona vs Osasuna (Thursday 20:00 GMT)+
Preview:
Barcelona and Osasuna face each other at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in a postponed La Liga fixture. Barca aim to retain top position in the standings, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. A man to watch in the home team will be Robert Lewandowski, who helped Poland beat Lithuania in the 2026 World Cup qualifier, while the likes of Marc Casado, Inigo Martinez, Andreas Christensen, and Marc Bernal remain in the recovery room.
Los Rojillos, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to Getafe and given their six-game winless run in all competitions, anything but a routine home triumph would be a big surprise. To make things even worse for the visitors, experienced midfielder Lucas Torro serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards. In their last meeting in Catalonia, Barcelona defeated Osasuna 1-0 thanks to Vitor Roque’s goal.
