Granada form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the La Liga this season. Granada have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses from their games here at Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes.

A good away victory last time out for Granada, who won 7-0 against Laguna. As mentioned above, Granada "killed" Laguna in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. What a game it was for Adrián Butzke when beating Laguna, applying the finishing touch to three goals!

Before that, Granada played out a La Liga draw 2-2 when visiting Athletic Club.

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

The Granada fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. Granada have conceded 11 from these games.

Deportivo Alavés form and stats

Deportivo Alavés have only collected 5 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 1-2-3 (6 played). Visiting Deportivo Alavés has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

It's the second away game in a row for Alavés, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Unami in the Copa Del Rey last time out.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Celta de Vigo.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Deportivo Alavés playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were two Alavés wins, one draw and five defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Alavés as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. Alavés have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
