Albion to host Osauna at Hawthorns

Albion will play Spanish top-flight outfit Osasuna in their final pre-season friendly at the Hawthorns on Saturday August 7.

Roberto Di Matteo’s men will complete their preparations for the Premier League season, by taking on the La Liga side in their only home fixture before the new season.

The match will take place a week before the start of the new top-flight season.

Osasuna finished 12th in the Spanish top division last term, holding champions Barcelona to a 1-1 draw and runners-up Real Madrid to a goalless stalemate at their home ground.

Based in the northern province of Navarre, they are managed by former Spain boss Jose Antonio Comacho.
