Match Facts:
Osasuna (20th, 9 pts)
- The beleaguered basement boys are winless in 10 and will be desperate to end that run this weekend in order to head into the second half of the season on a high note, revive morale and boost their survival hopes.
- Key to the Pamplona outfit's chances of upsetting their high-flying opponents will be five-goal Roberto Torres's pace, power and prowess on the break, as well as the flair provided by Sergio Leon and Oriol Riera, who are both also capable of hitting the back of the net. Alex Berenguer's eye for a pass could also be crucial.
Sevilla (2nd, 39 pts)
- After beating LaLiga Santander leaders Real Madrid in dramatic circumstances last matchday, Jorge Sampaoli's troops are positively buzzing. Now the onus is on them to keep their foot on the pedal in order to prove that they are genuine title contenders.

- The odds are heavily stacked in the Andalusians' favour. Besides the two teams' respective league positions, it is worth noting that Sevilla have only lost one of the last five top-flight meetings between the two clubs.
