Diving deep into the offensive might of Real Betis, we witness a commendable contribution from the trio of Willian José, Marc Roca, and Ayoze Pérez. With José leading the charge with 3 goals from just 4 starts and Roca and Pérez both contributing with 2 goals apiece, their offensive firepower is undeniable. Given Osasuna’s defensive metrics, especially the performance of their goalkeeper Sergio Herrera who has conceded 8 goals in 7 starts, there is a good chance that Real Betis’ top scorers can exploit the gaps.
Switching our focus to Osasuna, their offense showcases the likes of Ante Budimir, who has managed to net 4 goals from 7 starts, and Aimar Oroz and Chimy Ávila both with a single goal each. Facing Betis’s goalkeeper, Rui Silva, who has had 7 goals against him in 5 starts, Osasuna’s forwards may see an opportunity to improve their goal tally. Silva, however, has had 15 saves and 2 clean sheets, which can be a significant barrier for Osasuna’s offensive maneuvers.
