Granada beat Osasuna odds appeal in La Liga on Friday following a superb start to the season from the hosts.
Both sides were promoted back into the top flight of Spanish football for this term after two years in the second tier.
It’s Granada who have impressed most, however, and they sit a high-flying fourth in La Liga.
Their home form is excellent. They beat Barcelona on their own patch, so should have no trouble against Osasuna.
The Navarre outfit have a poor away record after only beating rock bottom Leganes on the road so far.
Osasuna may be tough to beat under boss Jagoba Arrasate, but they now face an 800km trip across Spain.
Granada are thriving following their promotion back to La Liga. Head coach Diego Martinez, who also used to manage Osasuna, has done a fantastic job.
He worked in Sevilla’s setup under Unai Emery and Marcelino Garcia Toral, so learned from some of the top Spanish bosses.
Why Granada beat Osasuna odds appeal
Their strong displays on home turf make Granada beat Osasuna odds of 7/5 with Unibet well worth backing.
The visitors have conceded four goals in their last three away matches without winning any of those.
Granada, meanwhile, have won their last couple of home games to nil. They also beat Osasuna 2-0 in this fixture in the Segunda Division last season.
Only Martinez’s old club Sevilla have stopped Granada from scoring this term. Just three La Liga sides – Villarreal, Real Madrid and Barca – have found the net more.
Although it would be a major surprise if Granada can maintain their lofty perch throughout the season, this is a winnable game.
Martinez can mastermind a defeat of ex-team Osasuna and keep the good feeling going at the Andalusia outfit.
Bet of the Day: 7/5 with Unibet, Granada beat Osasuna in La Liga.
