Osasuna vs Espanyol Match Preview: La Liga Clash at Estadio El Sadar

Osasuna host Espanyol at Estadio El Sadar in Pamplona on 17 May 2026, with kickoff at 17:00 UTC. The clash comes in La Liga Regular Season - 37, with Osasuna sitting 13th on 42 points (goal difference -4) and Espanyol 14th, also on 42 points (goal difference -13).

Osasuna Availability

Osasuna have two fitness concerns. Raul Moro (Injury) is doubtful. Víctor Muñoz (Muscle Injury) is doubtful. Both are listed among the first-team group, with Raul Moro operating from midfield and Víctor Muñoz in the attacking line, so their status will influence Jagoba Arrasate’s options in the wide and support roles around the main striker. There are no suspensions reported for Osasuna.

Espanyol Availability

Espanyol face a confirmed attacking absence and one further concern. Javi Puado (Knee Injury) is sidelined. C. Ngonge (Knee Injury) is doubtful. Puado is a recognised forward option, while Ngonge offers versatility across the front line, so Luis García may need to adjust his rotation in the final third. No yellow-card or red-card suspensions are listed for Espanyol.

Impact Summary

From the available team season statistics, Osasuna’s primary attacking output is led by A. Budimir with 17 league goals, and he is available. Espanyol’s main creative force, Edu Expósito, leads their assist chart with 6 and is available, softening the impact of Puado’s absence in terms of chance creation.
