Osasuna-Valencia, the probable formations

Pamplona’s El Sadar stadium hosts at 9 p.m. Sunday a challenge between teams in enormous difficulty, in the match that closes the Sunday program of the 26th day of La Liga. On the field are Osasuna, which has picked up 2 points in its last three games, moving away perhaps permanently from the race for Europe, and Valencia, in the midst of the relegation zone (although fourth-last Las Palmas è only one point away).

Vicente Moreno opts for a heavily-covered Osasuna, with a five-man defense in which Areso and Bretones will act on the side lanes. In the middle Herrando and Boyomo on the sides of Catena. In midfield Moncayola, Torro and Oroz, doubts about Budimir’s position: he could start on the same line as center forward Zaragoza or a few meters behind him.

Very traditional 4-4-2 instead for Carlos Corberan and his Valencia side. In front of Mamardashvili will be Foulquier on the right and Gaya on the left, with Mosquera and Tarrega in the middle. The midfield will be entrusted to Barrenechea and Guerra in the center, with Pepelu and Almeida in charge of the side lanes. In attack, offensive tandem with Duro and Diego Lopez.

Probable lineups:

OSASUNA (5-3-2): Herrera; Areso, Boyomo, Catena, Herrando, Bretones; Moncayola, Torro, Oroz; Budimir, Zaragoza. Coach: Moreno.
VALENCIA (4-4-2): Mamardashvili; Foulquier, Tarrega, Mosquera, Gaya; Pepelu, Barrenechea, Guerra, Almeida; Duro, D. Lopez. Coach: Corberan.
