Osasuna have fired blanks in 6 of their last 10 domestic games (3 in 5 home and 3 in 5 away). They haven’t won in 6 domestic games at home. The draw is however a real danger with Osasuna drawing with Valencia, Barcelona and Seville recently. Its hard to know what way Seville will approach this. Last season they kept it tight away in Schalke in the first leg and knowing their home form is so strong they might play this cagy as well. Stakes small here.

A nice short price on the game is on first ½ goals. Betfair have 1.39 available at present for 1.5 or less (i.e no more than 1 goal) but it might go out a bit. In 7 home European games this season they have yet to be more than 1 in the first half of an Osasun home game . In their 15 homes La Liga games only three times have they conceded more than 1 in the first ½ .

I’d fancy Werder to get something at Espanyol. The Spanish having gone 3 up at home in the first leg vs Benefica in the quarters conceded two in 5 minutes. They were battered from the highlights I saw in the return leg with their goalie playing a stormer in a scoreless shut out. Schalke beat them 3-0 at home at the quarter final stage last season and I’d rate Werder at as good as Schalke (finished 9 points above them last season and neck and neck this season). The Germans have lost on the road domestically only to Schalke and Stuttgart. European form definitely more mixed but they get plenty of goals and it should be an entertaining game. I got on at 2.76 and steady support has seen that price pushed down to 2.7.
