Barcelona Deportivo Alavés betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be quite unbalanced, since the home team makes an impeccable campaign in La Liga where it leads with great ease, while the away team tries to move away from the last positions. In addition, Barcelona has a world-class squad and great strength in its stadium where it has the best La Liga campaign with 8 wins and 1 draw, plus averages of almost 3 goals scored per game, while Alavés has lost 4 of the last 5 away games and has great difficulties to score goals in this type of situation. Given these factors, we believe that Barcelona dominate the match from the beginning and finish the first half already in advantage on the scoreboard.
