OSA vs ALA Dream11 Prediction: Osasuna square off against Alaves on Thursday afternoon looking to end their eight-match winless streak in La Liga. Lowly Osasuna went into Christmas without a win in eight games. No win in two months means they have slipped into the relegation zone and, unless there is a remarkable set of scorelines this midweek, they will remain there as we head into the New Year. They come up against an Alaves side who have opened up this season in relative terms. A 2-1 win prior to Christmas allowed them to climb safely into mid-table. Osasuna have had six of their games finish with both teams to score and their last three games have featured a combined 13 goals, which is way out of line with the league average. Let’s take a look at OSA vs ALA Dream11 Team prediction now.
