As the La Liga season approaches its climax, a pivotal match awaits at the Estadio de Mendizorroza where Deportivo Alavés will host Valencia. This clash will not only have implications for who secures vital points in the league standings but may also determine the destiny of both teams as they strive to reinforce their league positions.

Home Team Overview: Deportivo Alavés

Currently sitting in 17th place, Deportivo Alavés is in a critical phase of the season, narrowly fighting to avoid relegation. The team’s previous performances have shown inconsistency, culminating in a win-loss-draw record that reads 8-11-16 after 35 games. Their last outing against Athletic Club ended in a disappointing 1-0 defeat, highlighting the challenges they face in front of the net, exemplified by a mere 35 goals scored this season. However, their defense has been somewhat resolute, conceding 47 goals, giving them an overall goal difference of -12.

At home, Alavés has gathered some strength. However, they’ve only managed to score 12 goals in 17 home matches, a statistic that calls for urgent improvement if they hope to rise in the standings. Still, the team will rely on their home advantage to secure crucial points in this fixture.

Away Team Overview: Valencia

In stark contrast, Valencia holds a more stable position in 10th place, boasting a total of 45 points after 35 matches. Their recent form, marked by a victory over Getafe (3-0), showcases their attacking prowess, having netted 43 goals this season. With 12 wins to their name, they will be looking to further enhance their campaign in this encounter. But their defense has seen a slight dip, conceding 51 goals, which indicates a need for improvement as they square off against Alavés.

Valencia’s away form also appears promising, having scored 17 goals on the road, but they have also struggled to maintain clean sheets, resulting in a slight vulnerability that Alavés could exploit.

Betting Predictions and Tips

Given the recent form, Valencia enters this match as favorites with odds of 3.60 for an away win. Alavés, on the other hand, stands at 2.10 to win at home, with a strong chance considering their motivation to escape the drop zone.

Here’s the crux: both teams have shown a tendency for matches that feature goals, with a combined total of results leading to over 2.5 goals in many of their recent outings. Thus, a "Both Teams to Score" (BTTS) bet stands out as an attractive market. The odds suggest that this will be a hard-fought contest, and with the attacking qualities on both sides, you could consider placing a bet on BTTS Yes, which reflects both teams’ abilities to find the back of the net.
