Alaves made a 3-3 draw as a guest against Leganes in the last round. However, this sent them to the relegation zone, from where they have a chance to escape now with a victory. However, they have only achieved one victory in their last 12 matches. They have not been successful in their last five home games, although they have not conceded more than one goal in any of them. However, their attack needs improvement, leading to six consecutive home games with under 2.5 goals for Alaves.
Espanyol had another good home game in the last round with a 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao. For now, they have managed to escape the relegation zone, but they are still close to it. They need to start earning points away from home, which has been a problem for the team this season. Espanyol is the weakest away team and has only managed to get two draws from their ten away games so far.
Prediction: Victory for AlavesI think that at least against the weakest away team, Alaves can achieve victory, although it is important for both teams.
