The match between Real Sociedad and Osasuna at the Reale Arena is a key clash of the 28th round of LaLiga. The two teams are separated by just one point in the middle of the table and still have a chance to qualify for the European tournaments next season. The Basques are in a shaky series. In the last round they lost dramatically to Atletico Madrid. However, they are very strong at home, having not lost in 7 consecutive home matches and having scored a goal in their last 11 matches at the Reale Arena. The guests from Pamplona are in good form, having been unbeaten in 7 of their last 8 matches in the league. In the previous round, they finished 2-2 with Mallorca, and recently pulled off the big surprise by defeating Real Madrid. The guests have serious absences due to suspensions. Key midfielders Ruben Garcia and Raul Garcia will not play. In attack, Ante Budimir is in great form and will be the main threat. Real Sociedad won the first game of the season 3-1 away, but Osasuna managed to pull out a 2-2 draw in the Copa del Rey in January. Historically, Sociedad dominates this clash on home soil with 35 wins from 54 games.
