Our prediction for this Copa del Rey match:
Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez will be the centre of attention when Tenerife and Osasuna lock horns in the Copa del Rey last 32. Los Insulares are on a three-game losing run in Segunda Division and given their difficulties in front of goal, home win should not be considered. It has to be noted that Tenerife failed to find the net in the previous four games in all competitions. Defender Jose Amo remains in the recovery room, while midfielder Aitor Sanz is a major doubt.
Los Rojillos, on the other hand, have big ambitions for the 2024/2025 Copa del Rey campaign. As Osasuna are determined to recover from an unlucky 2-1 loss to Athletic Bilbao, away win should be considered. In their last meeting in the Spanish second tier Tenerife defeated Osasuna 3-2 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Team (Osasuna):
Osasuna are a Basque football team that plays in Spanish La Liga. Los Rojillos are based in Pamplona and and the club were founded in 1920. Estadio El Sadar has been the home of Osasuna since 1967 and the capacity of the stadium is 19,800.
The colour of Osasuna’s home kit is red, while the team’s shorts are navy blue. Los Rojillos dropped to the Segunda Division at the end of the 2013/2014 La Liga campaign, but they did not spend too many time in the Spanish second tier. The club returned to the elite division in 2016 after beating Girona in the play-offs.
Osasuna made it to the Spanish Copa del Rey final in 2005, but they eventually lost to Real Betis after extra time in the title game. The meaning of the word Osasuna is “health” in Basque and it is used in a sense of strength.
