Allows five against Betis Fernandez recorded three saves and allowed five goals in Sunday's 5-2 loss versus Betis.

Impact Fernandez was in for a rough outing Sunday, as the keeper would make fewer saves than goals allowed, allowing five goals past him while stopping three shots.

Concedes once in draw Fernandez recorded one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Fernandez has started in Osasuna's last two league matches, but his numbers haven't been eye-popping -- he has eight saves while conceding five times. Still, this was a step in the right direction after he allowed four goals in a 4-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid on Sept. 16. His interventions were key to helping Osasuna end a three-match losing streak.

Seven saves in first start Fernandez registered seven saves and allowed four goals in Wednesday's 4-0 loss versus Atletico Madrid.

Impact Aitor made his first league start of the season at the Metropolitano and came away with plenty of credit despite the four goals his side conceded. The goalkeeper produced seven saves and kept Osasuna's punishment from growing heavier, and his reflexes, positioning and willingness to compete made him the most dependable performer in an otherwise subdued side. The chance arrived through rotation with a demanding run of fixtures to navigate, and while Sergio Herrera has been the established number one, a display of that sort could nudge Aitor slightly ahead in the thinking for the visit of Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Fernandez made his first start of the season with Sergio Herrera suspended due to yellow card accumulation.

Returns to bench Fernandez (strain) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Barcelona.

Impact Fernandez has returned to the team sheet despite seeing the doubtful tag, with the goalie returning to the bench. He has yet to see a minute this season and is their backup goalie, likely to continue in this role.

Doubt to face Osasuna Hernandez is dealing with a muscular strain and is doubtful to face Barcelona on Saturday, according to Mundo Deportivo.

Three saves in loss Fernandez registered three saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Barcelona.

Impact Fernandez made his first start in close to three months in this match and made a season-high three saves.

Eliminated in cup Fernandez made four saves and one penalty save during Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Sociedad.

Impact Fernandez had an excellent day, but unfortunately it's likely his last of the season barring injuries elsewhere.

Fernandez is now up to four goals conceded in just two appearances on the season.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes two goals in loss Fernandez had no saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Athletic.

Impact It's hard to blame Fernandez for the two goals he conceded, as Osasuna was extremely passive on defense all game long, and both goals came via close-range finishes where Fernandez had nothing to do. His next game won't be easier, as Osasuna will travel to Mestalla to take on Valencia on Sunday.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes five saves Sunday Fernandez made five saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Girona.

Impact Fernandez responded every time Osasuna needed him, and while he couldn't keep the clean sheet, he was able to deliver the win as Osasuna clinched a spot in next year's UEFA Europa Conference League. Fernandez played a big role in that achievement, as he started 21 times and allowed just 19 goals while also keeping eight clean sheets.

Impact Fernandez didn't have much job here and looked on his way to a second clean sheet over the last three appearances. However, Lazaro was there to ruin his plans, scoring the opposition's consolation goal with a spectacular finish from just outside the box during second half's stoppage time. That's now three consecutive matches without allowing multiple goals for Fernandez, who will need to be at his best during May 21 visit to third-placed Atletico Madrid.

MAY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes once in loss Fernandez recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat versus Barcelona.

Impact Fernandez conceded one goal Tuesday, an 85th minute strike by Jordi Alba. Keeping Barcelona to just one goal while playing down a man (due to Jorge Herrando's red card in the 26th minute) is decent given the circumstances. He faces an easier matchup Saturday versus Almeria, a side which has scored 42 goals in 33 league matches this season.

MAY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Fernandez was beaten by a Tete Morente strike just before halftime on Saturday, but his side was able to come back and win the game via an Ez Abde brace in the second half. Fernandez is still seeing some rotation in goal with Sergio Herrera, who has started two La Liga games since the start of March and has been the preferred option in the Copa del Rey.

APRIL 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes three in defeat Fernandez made three saves and conceded three goals in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Villarreal.

Impact Fernandez was returning to the starting lineup having been dropped to the bench for the previous game.

It will be interesting to see who he picks when they face Mallorca next Friday.
