Football Bet of the Day: Run with goals in Pamplona

Osasuna often piggyback their way to Over 2.5 Goals

Tobias Gourlay's feeling bullish about tonight's game from Spain's Segunda Division

Osasuna v Real Zaragoza
Tuesday 18:00

Boavista 1 Rio Ave 1 in Portugal last night, leaving us 1 short of landing an Over 2.5 Goals bet that dripped with value.

We go again. This time on the other side of the Iberian border.

Relegated by a single point from La Liga last term, Osasuna have made little impact on this season's Segunda Division, except to marginally increase its goals-per-game average.

A lot of that is to do with a 6-4 home success over Mallorca in September, but El Sadar has often delivered at least Over 2.5 Goals.

In fact, each of the last six home games in which the Reds have scored have delivered three match goals or more (6/10 in total).

Jan Urban's men will fancy their chances of breaking through a Real Zaragoza defence that is seven away games without a clean sheet, having conceded a total of 17 goals. Six of those matches produced Over 2.5 Goals.

At the other end sixth-placed Zaragoza have struck at least once in 8/9 on the road.

Recommended Bet
Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.47/5 in Osasuna v Real Zaragoza
