Alavés vs Barcelona Preview

Alavés

Despite a promising start for Alavés, Los Blanquiazules suffered two consecutive defeats against Real Madrid and Getafe. While a loss was anticipated against Los Blancos, their performance against Getafe was disappointing. Getafe outplayed them in both halves, securing a 2-0 victory.

One of Alavés’s weakest spots is the defence. Despite scoring two goals against Real Madrid and Espanyol, they also conceded three. Simple errors at the center-back position have been particularly costly.

Kike Garcia and Toni Martinez are two major players in the offence. Both of them have two goals, and they will surely pose a threat to Barca’s defenders. 

Barcelona

Following a convincing start in La Liga, Barcelona surprisingly lost away against Osasuna (4-2). Hansi Flick opted for a heavy squad rotation, providing opportunities to young players. However, conceding four goals was somewhat unexpected. The defensive issues have persisted since the start of the campaign, and Marc-André ter Stegen’s season-ending injury exacerbated the guests’ woes. 

The Blaugrana quickly bounced back by thrashing Young Boys (5-0) in the second round of Champions League. Robert Lewandowski scored a brace and Barça were dominant throughout the game.

The major concern for Barcelona at the moment is the number of key players missing due to injury. While Frenkie De Jong has returned, they remain without Dani Olmo, Gavi, and Fermín López, all of whom are sidelined. This leaves Barcelona thin in midfield, which could affect their consistency as the season progresses.

Alavés vs Barcelona Prediction

  • Pick: Barcelona to Win
  • Odds: 1.57 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Alavés 1-3 Barcelona

Barcelona have a massive advantage against Alavés in head-to-head encounters. Since 2016, the two sides have faced each other 14 times, with Barcelona winning 12 and drawing 2. The last time Alavés managed to defeat Barcelona was back in 2016 at Camp Nou.

The recent loss to Osasuna was an anomaly for Barça, especially considering their strong form in La Liga this season. Under Hansi Flick, Barcelona has been playing an aggressive, attacking style of football, scoring an impressive 25 goals in their first eight La Liga matches.

Alavés, on the other hand, are on a bad streak and are playing against the La Liga leaders. In the match against Getafe, Alavés displayed a poor performance in both the attack and defence.

We think that Barcelona will be able to get on back track and secure a comfortable victory in this encounter. Our pick is Barcelona to win. 

Alavés vs Barcelona Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
  • Odds: 1.65 (22Bet)

In the last six games featuring Alavés, four ended with at least three goals scored which indicates that they are vulnerable in the defence. On the other hand, Barcelona have seen a similar trend, with all but one of their 10 matches across domestic and European competitions ending with three or more goals scored.

Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Lamine Yamal are currently the main attackers in Barca’s front line. The trio capitalises on even the smallest of chances, making them a constant threat to any defence.

However, Barcelona’s defence this season has been unreliable and with Iñaki Peña as a goalkeeper we think it will be hard for the guests to keep a clean sheet. The clash will likely be an entertaining match with plenty of goals. Our second selection for Alavés vs Barcelona is over 2.5 goals.
