Deportivo Alavés comes into this motivated after a 1-0 victory away at Real Sociedad, with Nahuel Tenaglia scoring the decisive goal. Under the management of Eduardo Coudet, Alavés employs a tactical 4-3-3 formation, focusing on quick transitions and strong wing play to catch opponents off guard. The attacking responsibilities primarily lie with Carlos Martín, Carlos Vicente, and Kike García, a dynamic trio characterised by mobility, speed, and physical presence in the box.
