La Liga kicks off for Osasuna and Levante on August 24, 2026, with the hosts looking to assert their dominance at home. Osasuna enters the new season on the back of a solid, if unspectacular, campaign last year, finishing with 10 wins, 9 draws, and 12 losses. Their recent form, with just one defeat in their last five outings (1W 3D 1L), suggests a team that’s hard to beat, particularly at home where they hold a 32% win rate.
Levante, meanwhile, endured a tougher time last season, securing only 7 wins. However, their recent five-game run (2W 2D 1L) shows a flicker of renewed optimism, perhaps indicating they’ve found some rhythm. Goals could be on the cards, with Osasuna averaging over a goal per game last season (37 scored) and Levante conceding a significant 50.
Head-to-head encounters have been a mixed bag, with Osasuna winning three of the last five, including two decisive home victories. The bookmakers heavily favour Osasuna at 1.756, reflecting their stronger overall record and home advantage. With the Over 2.5 goals market priced at 1.91, expect an open contest as both sides seek to start their La Liga campaign with a statement win.
