Granda CF and Deportivo Alaves will both be looking to return to winning ways when they meet at Los Carmenes in La Liga on Friday night.
The two sides are separated by just one place and two points in the La Liga table, with fifteenth-place Alaves leading sixteenth-place Granada.
Granada head into Friday’s clash on a three-game winless run after drawing one and losing two of their previous three outings.
Following defeats to Espanyol and Real Madrid, they managed to hold Athletic Club to a 2-2 draw last time out.
When you look at the bigger picture, Granada have won just two of their 14 La Liga matches this season – registering six draws and six losses along the way.
They have also conceded a whopping 22 goals in the process, meaning they have one of the worst defensive records in the division.
As for Deportivo Alaves, they were beaten 2-1 by Celta Vigo last weekend – despite chalking up 13 shots on home soil.
They have now won just one of their previous four league matches and come into Friday’s clash on a two-game winless stretch.
Only on team – Getafe – have netted fewer goals than Alaves this term. Indeed, they have managed to hit the target on just 11 occasions.
If they don’t turn things around quickly, they – and Granada – will find themselves involved in a relegation battle before too long.
Head-to-head: Granada have won four of their last five La Liga meetings with Alaves, scoring over 1.5 goals in each game during that period.
That said, Alaves thrashed Granada 4-2 in their previous meeting back in May. As a result, both teams have scored in four of their past six clashes.
Team news: Neyder Lozano (head), Yan Eteki (muscle) and Luis Milla (knee) are all currently injured for Granada.
Deportivo Alaves have just one injury absentee at the moment as right-back Ximo Navarro continues to recover from a ruptured cruciate ligament.
With so much at stake, both teams will be eager to avoid defeat on Friday. For that reason, Granada and Alaves are likely to play out a draw.
Forebet predicts that Granada and Alaves will share the points at Los Carmenes. On top of that, both teams are expected to score over 1.5 goals.
