Real Madrid v Osasuna Live Stream to Watch : Ronaldo returns to La Liga in time for Real’s late title push
Real Madrid are overwhelming 1/18 favourites to beat relegation threatened Osasuna as the home side look to stay in title race, with the game live streaming with Bet365.
After stuttering through the beginning part of 2014, Real Madrid have rallied strongly in recent weeks to haul themselves firmly back into the title race but they will need to beat Osasuna on Saturday night if they want to continue their forward momentum.
Real currently find themselves third in the standings six points behind leaders Atletico but a win would see them move into second place with a game advantage over their arch-rivals.
The big news for Carlo Ancelotti’s side is that Cristiano Ronaldo will return to La Liga action for the first time this month having missed the last few games with a thigh injury.
Ronaldo’s presence has been huge for Madrid this season scoring 28 goals this season helping Real keep up with the frenetic pace that has continued all season long.
The home side will also go into the match in high spirits after learning that boss Carlo Ancelotti won’t be leaving the Bernabeu in the near future after heavy speculation linked him with a move to Manchester United.
For Osasuna, the trip to the Bernabeu will be a daunting task as the Basque side focus on avoiding relegation and putting daylight between themselves and the bottom three.
It will be difficult for the side from Pamplona as they will be without the key midfield pairing of Roberto Torres and Francisco Silva who are both suspended for the clash.
There will be some daylight for the visitors who have been on a good run of form in recent weeks allowing to extend their unbeaten streak to four games altogether.
Osasuna did also manage to squeeze a point out of Real when the two sides met back in December where the relegation strugglers took a two goal lead before the visitors pulled it back to finish 2-2.
However, a draw won’t be enough for either Real or Osasuna as both sides need a win to fulfil their season ambitions and stave off fierce competition from others in the table.
