Osasuna will target a positive start to their league campaign as they kick off the new 2024/25 La Liga season by hosting newly-promoted Leganes. This matchday one fixture at the Estadio El Sadar in Pamplona on Saturday comes with our prediction of goals from both teams.

It was a below-par season for Osasuna last year, where they finished 11th with 45 points. They only trailed the top-ten clubs by a single point, but the damage was disheartening. It was their joint-worst finish to a La Liga campaign in the last five years, underscoring the magnitude of the task that awaits them.

New coach Vicente Moreno will hope to turn things around quickly, as he looks to find a solution to their poor form at home last season. Osasuna lost eight and won just six of their home league matches last season. That’s incentive for the newly promoted Leganes to take advantage and start the season with a win.

Leganes are back in La Liga after four years out in the Segunda Division wilderness. They had a good finish to their pre-season as well, winning their last two friendlies. In fact, they are unbeaten in their last three matches and will feel confident about starting the league campaign on the front foot.

A few interesting arrivals like Óscar Rodríguez and Marko Dmitrović have increased the excitement around Leganes, but it remains to be seen if those are enough to drive their success.
