Barcelona vs. Osasuna live stream: How to watch Spanish Supercopa live online, TV channel, prediction, odds

Barcelona and Osasuna meet in Saudi Arabia on Thursday for a place in the Spanish Supercopa final against Real Madrid. The defending La Liga champions are up against last season’s beaten Copa del Rey finalists while Xavi’s men are also out to defend their title having beaten Los Blancos last year. Outside of the new format in place since 2019-20, Barca are the most successful Supercopa team with 14 titles. The Catalans have started 2024 in winning form although victories over Las Palmas and Barbastro were not exactly convincing. Osasuna are getting their first taste of Supercopa action in their history after last year’s Copa del Rey heroics. Currently midtable, the Pamplona outfit are tough to break down defensively which could be an issue for Xavi’s side who struggle to dominate opponents right now.
