2025-26 Spanish La Liga
Matchday 25
Osasuna v Real Madrid
Estadio El Sadar
Pamplona, Spain
Saturday, 21 February 2026
Kick-off is at 18h30
Real Madrid will be keen to keep the momentum going in La Liga when they travel to the north of Spain for a clash with Osasuna at El Sadar on Saturday, February 21.
Los Blancos are the in-form team in the league after winning eight games on the spin to ramp up the pressure on arch-rivals Barcelona in the title race.
Alvaro Arbeloa's side thrashed Real Sociedad 4-1 on February 14 to reclaim top spot from the Blaugrana, who failed to respond two days later after they suffered a shock 2-1 defeat to Girona in a Catalan derby.
Real have not been distracted by the sacking of Xabi Alonso on January 12, with Arbeloa winning his opening four matches to go two points clear of Barca at the summit.

Los Rojillos have improved in the new year, losing just one of their seven games to break into the top 10 and scoring 11 goals in the process.
Alessio Lisci's side failed to find the back of the net for the first time in five outings as they drew 0-0 with Elche on February 13 to sit just five points outside the European berths in 10th spot.
A 51st-minute penalty from Kylian Mbappe was all that separated the two clubs in the reverse fixture on August 18 which saw the Madrid giants run out narrow 1-0 victors.

Arbeloa hailed their three-point haul against Sociedad as "crucial" to Real's title prospects, but believes there will be more twists and turns in the months ahead in their battle with Barca.
"This is going to be very long, and we know that every matchday the three points are going to be crucial," he said.
"It's a battle that will be very lengthy, and surely there will be ups and downs. It's important to improve our play in all phases, to keep growing as a team and individually.
"There's no other way but to think about Tuesday (against Benfica in the UEFA Champions League), and week by week, we will face the matches in the best way possible with the goal of winning."
