The 2022-23 edition of La Liga kicks off with a set of exciting fixtures this week as Osasuna lock horns with Julen Lopetegui's Sevilla outfit in an intriguing encounter at the El Sadar Stadium on Friday.
Osasuna vs Sevilla Preview
Osasuna finished in 10th place in the La Liga standings last season and have been plagued by inconsistency over the past year. The Pamplona-based outfit edged Mirandes to a 2-1 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Sevilla, on the other hand, secured a fourth-place finish in the league table last season and have grown in stature under Julen Lopetegui. The Andalusian giants edged Cadiz to a narrow 1-0 victory in their previous game and will need to step up to the plate this week.

Osasuna vs Sevilla Prediction
Sevilla have endured a poor pre-season by their standards and have conceded seven goals in their last three matches. The Andalusians have impressive players at their disposal and have a point to prove in this fixture.
Osasuna can pack a punch on their day but have not been at their best against Sevilla in the past. Sevilla are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
