For the Villarreal vs Alaves prediction, we say Villarreal will win and this is why. Alaves are struggling to score goals and the fact they are playing away from home, having gone winless in their last five LaLiga matches, suggests they could as well lose this game to Villarreal, who won at least one of their last five LaLiga games.
Prediction: Villarreal 1-0 Alaves
We predict under 2.5 goals on Villarreal vs Alaves and this is why. Both teams have struggled to score goals and there’s a huge chance this clash could lack goals. Furthermore, two of Villarreal’s last five matches ended with over 2.5 goals while Alaves’ last five matches ended with less than three goals.
Betting Tip: Under 2.5 goals
Although Villarreal head into this game as the favourites, they have endured a terrible start to the season. The Yellow Submarines have managed to win just two of their opening nine LaLiga matches this term so far. As a result of their poor start to the season, they occupy the 16th position with 8 points.
Alaves have underperformed as well and are winless in their last five LaLiga matches. They headed into the international break with a 1-1 draw against 10 men Real Betis. Their poor start to the season has left them struggling to remain in the top flight as they occupy the 17th position with 8 points after 9 matches.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Villarreal: Jorgensen, Foyth, Albiol, Mandi, Alfonso, Parejo, Capoue, Pino, Trigueros, Brereton, Sorloth
Alaves: Sivera, Gorosabel, Abqar, Sedlar, Lopez, Guridi, Guevara, Rioja, Hagi, Sola, Kike
