Analysis of Alavés

The home team currently sits in 14th place, having amassed 18 points from 5 wins, 3 draws, and 9 losses. In their penultimate match, they lost at home to Real Madrid 1-2. In their last match, they were defeated away by Osasuna, with a score of 0-3. In the last 9 home matches in the league, Alavés has recorded 4 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, earning 14 points out of a possible 27. Defensive solidity has not been their strong suit, as they have conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 matches in this competition. In 17 games this season, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have never managed to turn the score around. One noteworthy trend in their last 20 home matches across all competitions is that they scored 6 of their 17 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

Deportivo Alavés enters this match after a 3-0 defeat away at Osasuna, marking four losses in the last five games played in La Liga. The home side tends to set up in a 4-3-3 tactical system, with Carles Aleñá, Toni Martínez, and Carlos Vicente taking on key offensive roles. It is important to highlight that the player responsible for organizing the attacking sector is midfielder Denis Suárez. When they engage in the offensive process, they usually do so down the right wing, utilizing the depth offered by full-back Jonny Otto. Victor Parada is unavailable for this match due to suspension.

The visiting team currently occupies 19th place, having secured 11 points from 2 wins, 5 draws, and 10 losses. In their penultimate match, they lost away to Sevilla 0-4. In their last match, they drew at home against Celta de Vigo 0-0. In their last 8 away games in the league, Real Oviedo has recorded 1 win, 1 draw, and 6 losses, earning 4 points out of a possible 24.

They haven’t won in 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches, there are some frequent scorelines: at halftime 2-0 (4 of 9 matches) and 1-0 (3 of 9 matches) and at the end of 90 minutes 2-0 (3 of 9 matches). Their attack has struggled to be effective, as they have not scored in 9 of their last 10 matches in this competition. This is a team that rarely takes the lead first, successfully opening the scoring only in 3 of their last 17 matches in La Liga; in those 3, they led at halftime in all and won only 1 by the end of the 90 minutes. In 17 matches in this competition, they have managed just 1 comeback in the 10 matches where they conceded the first goal.

Real Oviedo comes into this clash following a 0-0 draw against Celta de Vigo, resulting in three draws in their last five matches played in La Liga. The visiting team usually plays in a 4-3-3 tactical setup, featuring Josip Brekalo, Federico Viñas, and Ilyas Chaira in primary attacking roles. In midfield, the offensive game is orchestrated by Santiago Colombatto, who is key in creating and distributing plays. When they engage offensively, it typically happens down the left flank, using the depth provided by full-back Abdel Rahim. David Carmo will miss this match as he is participating in the Africa Cup of Nations.
