The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Mallorca take on an impressive Osasuna side at the Estadio el Sadar on Tuesday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will look to make their mark in this fixture.
Mallorca are in 15th place in the La Liga standings and have not been at their best this season. The away side edged Las Palmas to a narrow 1-0 victory last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Osasuna, on the other hand, are in 13th place in the league table and have struggled in recent weeks. The hosts held Athletic Bilbao to a 2-2 draw in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.
