Hansi Flick's side have been victorious in their opening seven matches of the league season, which has left them top of the table on 21 points, four points clear of second-placed Real Madrid.

Osasuna, meanwhile, have also made a solid start to their campaign, collecting 11 points from their opening seven matches, which has left them in seventh spot in the table.

Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides, as they prepare to lock horns at El Sadar this weekend.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 97

Osasuna wins: 20

Draws: 19

Barcelona wins: 58

This has been a fixture dominated by Barcelona throughout history, with the Catalan outfit winning 58 of their 97 games against Osasuna, suffering 20 defeats, while there have also been 19 draws.

Barcelona have managed 217 goals against Osasuna, meanwhile, and Lionel Messi is comfortably the all-time leading goalscorer in this fixture, netting 25 times against Los Rojillos during his time with the La Liga giants.

Each of the last six fixtures between the two sides in all competitions have ended in Barcelona wins, including a 1-0 success when the two teams last locked horns in La Liga in January 2024.

Osasuna last avoided defeat against Barcelona in December 2021 in La Liga, with the two teams playing out a 2-2 draw, while their last win over Saturday's opponents was a 2-1 success at Camp Nou in July 2020.

Barcelona have won eight of their last nine meetings in all competitions, though, and have only been beaten once since 2012, which is an indication of the size of Osasuna's task.

In La Liga, the two teams have met on 84 occasions, with Barcelona leading the overall head-to-head record 50 victories to Osasuna's 16, while there have also been 18 draws.

Two of Osasuna's last three league wins over Barcelona have actually come at Camp Nou, and they have only beaten the Catalan side once at home since March 2006.

Goals have also been an issue for Osasuna in their recent games with Barcelona, managing only two in their last five La Liga meetings, conceding 10 times in the process.
