Deportivo Alavés hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 35 points and a 15th position in the La Liga table. Visiting Granada holds 10th place with 43 pts.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Alavés and Granada.

Deportivo Alavés form and stats

When playing at home in the La Liga, Deportivo Alavés have managed 7 wins, 5 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 16 games. Deportivo Alavés has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager A. Garitano Aguirrezábal and the players.

Alavés are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Atletico Madrid. Before that game, the home loss against Osasuna with the scoreline 0-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Deportivo Alavés perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Deportivo Alavés as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Deportivo Alavés has won five of these, drawn four and lost two.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Deportivo Alavés as they are travelling to their away game against Real Valladolid in the La Liga. That match is three days after this one.

Alavés has scored 20 league goals at home this season, in 16 matches. Deportivo Alavés are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Olaranbe in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 12 from 16 matches.

Granada form and stats

Granada have only collected 14 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 3-5-8 (16 played). It's three draws from Granada's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.

Granada might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Eibar proved too strong as Granada slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes. A 0-0 draw at Leganes's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Granada in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Granada, five draws and one defeat.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Valencia in just three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Granada have scored 19 goals in 16 league games away. Granada have conceded 26 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Granada - Alavés 3-0 played earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last three meetings: one - zero - two (Deportivo Alavés wins - draws - Granada wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), zero had two or less.
