Almeria currently finds themselves at the bottom of the La Liga standings, facing challenges in making an impact this season. In their recent game, the hosts suffered a narrow 3-2 defeat against Deportivo Alaves and are seeking a rebound in the upcoming fixture.

Deportivo Alaves, positioned at 12th place in the league table, has shown commendable performance over the past year. Having secured a 1-0 victory against Cadiz last week, the away side aims to replicate a similar outcome in this encounter.

Head-to-Head and Key Numbers: Deportivo Alaves boasts an impressive recent record against Almeria, winning six out of the last 10 matches between the two teams, while Almeria secured victory in two instances. In the reverse fixture this season, Deportivo Alaves triumphed with a 1-0 scoreline and has the opportunity to achieve a La Liga double against their top-flight opponent for the first time since the 2018-19 season. Almeria has won only one of their last nine matches against Deportivo Alaves in all competitions, with their solitary victory coming by a convincing 5-0 scoreline in a Copa del Rey fixture in January 2021. After a run of three consecutive away defeats against Almeria in league competitions, Deportivo Alaves is unbeaten in their last three such games.

Prediction: Deportivo Alaves, displaying impressive form this season, aims to climb into the top half of the league table. Key players like Kike Garcia and Luis Rioja have been pivotal for the Basque side and are expected to make an impact in this fixture.

Struggling to cope with the quality of the top flight, Almeria finds themselves in a challenging situation. With Deportivo Alaves holding the advantage on paper, they are favored to secure a victory in this matchup.

Almeria seemed poised for a significant upset at the Bernabeu last weekend, holding a 2-0 lead against Real Madrid at halftime through goals from Largie Ramazani and Edgar Gonzalez. However, Carlo Ancelotti’s team staged a comeback in the second half, leveling the scores with goals from Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior, and ultimately securing a dramatic 3-2 victory with Dani Carvajal’s winner in the 99th minute.

Almeria expressed dissatisfaction with several VAR decisions they believed went against them. Midfielder Gonzalo Melero claimed they were “robbed,” and head coach Gaizka Garitano was sent off during an emotionally charged second half in the Spanish capital.

Despite the spirited performance, Almeria remains at the bottom of the table with six points from zero wins, six draws, and 15 defeats. They are ten points behind 17th-placed Sevilla. The team managed to hold league leaders Girona to a goalless draw in their last home game, offering a glimmer of hope for the struggling side.

Although Almeria has the poorest home record in La Liga this season, with just five points from 10 matches, they had a notable victory against Alaves with a 5-0 win in the Copa del Rey in January 2021.

Deportivo Alaves, having earned promotion through the Segunda Division playoffs, aims to secure their place in La Liga this season. Currently sitting in 12th place with 23 points from 21 matches, they have surpassed expectations. Unbeaten since a December 21 loss to Real Madrid, Luis Garcia’s side drew with Real Sociedad and secured consecutive wins over Sevilla and Cadiz.

Alaves, enjoying a better home record, won five of their ten home league matches in the 2023-24 campaign. In the reverse fixture earlier this season, they were also victorious against Almeria, with Aleksandar Sedlar’s 79th-minute goal proving to be the difference.
