Will Vinicius Junior Play Against Osasuna Tonight in La Liga?

Summary
The September FIFA international break is approaching quickly for the final stage of the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. With only two games remaining to determine the final teams heading for the best tournament, the FIFA World Cup, in CONMEBOL. Argentina, Ecuador, and Brazil have already booked their place in next year's mega event. Carlo Ancelotti-led Brazil made an announcement that their official squad list will be made public on August 25, in Rio de Janeiro, on Monday. Brazil is set to play two games (one home game & one away game) on September 5 and September 10.
As per Globo Esporte, the Real Madrid star forward Vinicius Junior will miss out on this international break. Reason? Well, the Brazilian winger received a yellow card suspension that he picked up against Paraguay, ruling him out against Chile. The former Real Madrid head coach has opted him out for the high altitude challenge of over 4,100 meters in Villa Ingenio. While Rodrygo and Eder Militao will be making their return to the national team.
Will Vinicius Junior Play Against Osasuna?
The Brazilian stalwart Vinicius Junior has been a driving force in the attacking third for Real Madrid for years now. Although his recent performances and form have raised a few questions but it's evident that the Spanish giants Real Madrid's faith in him hasn't wavered at all. Under Xabi Alonso-led new Real Madrid will definitely feature and will look to regain his form, no better game to make his comeback. Osasuna has been one of the few teams against whom he loves playing. Will Vinicius Junior play against Osasuna? Yes, the Brazilian is expected to feature in the opening game against Osasuna. He has scored eight times against them in 12 outings. In recent times, fans often complain about him not bringing contagious energy onto the field as he did before. With Xabi Alonso at the helm, fans can expect him to find his footing once again, and hopefully, he will show his peak form, bringing a lot of trophies in the upcoming season. Who might be the front three? This is a question raised by many, and understandably, with young striker Garcia putting up his hand and scoring bangers in front of the net during the preseason. And made things difficult for Xabi as to who he should start.
