As part of one of the matches of the Spanish championship, the players of Alaves and Barcelona will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation? LiveResult.Ru gives a forecast for this meeting.
"Alaves"
This season, the "glorious" are very unpredictable. The untapped potential of the club is visible to the naked eye. At the start of the tournament, the basques suffered six defeats in a row, after which they were able to defeat the current champion of the country, which gave hope to fans for a favorable outcome. After the 21st match of the current championship, the "glorious" were able to record 4 victories and 5 peaceful outcomes, which brought 17 points and 18th place in the relegation zone. In the last five meetings, the "bean destroyers" lost 3 times, and also drew twice – with Real Sociedad and Athletic. The debut in the Spanish Cup was also unsuccessful for the team, where Mendilibar's team defeated Unami, after which they could not cope with Linares (1:2).
Barcelona
The Catalan team started unsuccessfully in the Spanish Cup, where after defeating Linares (2:1) in the second round, the team finished its performances, losing in a face-to-face meeting to Athletic Bilbao in extra time (2:3 d.v.). Unsuccessfully, the team made a trip to Saudi Arabia, where they could not defeat Real Madrid in the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup. In the La Liga standings, Xavi's team has 8 wins and draws, which brought 32 points and the 6th position in the "table of ranks". It should be noted that the gap from the fourth "Atletico" was only 1 point. In 2022, the Catalans started with a victory over Mallorca, after which they painted a world match with Granada.
Statistics and figures:
- Barcelona is the favorite of the meeting;
- Alaves has an 8-match winless streak;
- Barcelona does not win in 3 matches in all tournaments;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 1:1.
Forecast
It's time for Barcelona to win. Recently, the team has lost everything possible, having been eliminated from the Super Cup and the Spanish Cup. The fans were waiting for a victory, and this time the Catalans will be able to score three points. Our opinion coincides with the opinion of the bookmakers.
