Key Narrative
This is a classic top vs. mid table clash with Barcelona as heavy favorites. The Catalans aim to continue their rampant scoring form (with Ferran Torres coming off a hat trick), while Osasuna seeks a desperately needed away upset to halt Barça’s momentum and ease their own relegation concerns. Osasuna also faces a busy December schedule ahead.
