On Wednesday night, Alaves and Osasuna clash at the Estadio de Mendizorroza, in a midtable battle in La Liga.
The two teams look secure from relegation with eight games remaining, as both sides are nine points clear of the danger zone with time running out. Top half finishes in La Liga would represent successful seasons for the pair.
Alaves head into this game in highly inconsistent form in La Liga. A 6-0 humiliation at relegation-threatened Celta Vigo last time out means that Asier Garitano’s team has now suffered defeat in two of their previous three league outings.
The fact that the home side has kept just one clean sheet in their last ten league outings has been an obstacle to more positive league results.
One big positive of late for Alaves is their recent home record, as they are undefeated in four matches on home soil, recording three victories in the process. Both teams have scored in seven of Alaves last eight home games in the Spanish top-flight.
Osasuna are above the home side due to a 4-2 victory earlier this season. The visitors recent league form has been poor, as they have won just once in their last six games, suffering four defeats along the way. Last time out in La Liga they suffered a 2-0 defeat at Valencia.
The defeat at the Mestalla means that Osasuna have now conceded at least two goals in seven of their last ten outings in the Spanish top-flight.
The visitors have also struggled to pick up points on their travels of late in La Liga, as they have won just once in seven away matches while losing four of their six matches on the road.
Forebet predicts that Osasuna’s poor recent away form will continue here, with the home side coming out on top in a low-scoring clash.
