Good morning, dear Osasunists! Today we have a football Saturday afternoon on the previous day for Easter Sunday, called Day of Resurrection in Spain.
Osasuna need to resurrect before the season is over. There are few opportunities left and the team has to win the points at El Sadar to avoid relegation. It is clear that Salvation is in their hands and probably Osasuna will get their aim of the season if they win Valencia C.F. this afternoon.
El Sadar is waiting to see a victory of the home team as we haven't watched it in the last four games celebrated in our stadium. There is a sense of a lost opportunity from last game against Valladolid, a direct rival in the relegation race, and today the visitor is a team that fight for a European post.
Since the game against the powerful possible Champion of La Liga Atletico de Madrid ( 3-0 ) on the last 23rd Febraury, supporters at El Sadar have just seen two draw games and two defeats. Nevertheless, "the little reds" ( los rojillos ) have added 5 points from the last possible 9, and the best of all that is those points were obtained against direct rivals, so the goalaverage is in favour of Osasuna.
Javi Gracia may not make any change in the kickoff team that got a draw against Valladolid, but it is good news to hear that Armenteros can be used and only the long-term injured, Lolo and Sisi are in the nurse's office.
On the other hand, Valencia travel to Pamplona with their minds in the semifinal of the Europe League against Sevilla next Thursday, but they must also think of their posts to play that competition next season, which are occupied by Real Sociedad and Sevilla too.
Possible kickoff teams:
Osasuna: Andrés Fernández; Marc Bertrán, Arribas,
Miguel Flaño, Damià; Raoul Loé, Silva; Cejudo, De las Cuevas, Roberto
Torres; Oriol Riera. Valencia: Guaita, Pereira, Vezo, Mathieu, Bernat, Keita, Parejo, Feghouli, Cartabia, Vargas, Paco Alcácer.
GORA OSASUNA!AUPA ROJILLOS!
