La Liga
Alaves is two points away from the relegation zone and continues to fight to avoid relegation. For this, they need more points until the end of the season. Although they have won more points recently away, they managed to surprise Real Sociedad with a 1-0 win at home in their last match. They recently did the same with the same result against Villarreal. Now they are also hosting a team from the higher positions in the standings. Interestingly, the last 11 home matches of Alaves have had under 2.5 goals.
Although they have won three of their last four matches, Atletico Madrid is not very convincing lately. This has led to their final abdication from the title race, distancing themselves 10 points from the top. For now, they are firmly in third place and need to maintain it until the end of the campaign. However, Atletico often makes unexpected mistakes in their away matches against similar opponents. This was seen in their last visit, a 1-0 loss to Las Palmas. Furthermore, they have also lost their last two away matches against Alaves.
Forecast: under 2.5 goals, 1X double chanceAlaves needs the points more in this match and will try to bring the surprise. Atletico has not been convincing as an away team recently, and I think it is possible for them to stumble here as well. Above all, I will choose under 2.5 goals, which has become a tradition for Alaves' home matches.
