Osasuna are in 10th place in the La Liga standings and have been fairly inconsistent this season. The Pamplona-based outfit played out a 0-0 stalemate against Levante last week and will need to take it up a notch in this match.

Barcelona, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table at the moment and have struggled to impose themselves this season. The Catalan giants crashed out of the Champions League this week and will want to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat against Bayern Munich.
