Deportivo Alaves
- Deportivo Alaves have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five matches.
- Alaves are in pretty good shape to have secured 11 points in the opening eight games of the season, which leaves them 10th in the LaLiga table.
- Eduardo Coudet’s Alaves have played in a fast-paced, vertical style since he took over in December 2024 with the team pressing the ball aggressively and transitioning rapidly between defense and attack, making them a team to strongly consider for this Deportivo Alaves vs Valencia CF betting tips.
Valencia CF
- Valencia have had a tough time of things with three defeats and one win in their last five and are winless on the road in LaLiga so far this season (Drawn 1, Lost 3).
- Valencia, meanwhile, are a more compact, pragmatic side under Carlos Corberan, who has built solidity and structure at the back and counter-attacking discipline since taking over in December 2024.
- Their recent back-to-back 2-1 losses, away at Girona and at home to Real Oviedo, have left them 15th in LaLiga.
Head-to-Head
Alaves have won three of the pair’s last five head-to-head meetings, which include a 1-0 win in last year’s friendly at Valencia, and may have a slight edge to win a tight game on Monday, according to our Deportivo Alaves vs Valencia CF prediction.
Key Players
- In terms of individual contributions, Carles Alena is the most creative midfielder for Alaves with three assists in eight LaLiga appearances, while Luis Rioja is in the same position for Valencia with the same number of assists in the same games.
- Arnaut Danjuma is the top scorer for Valencia with three LaLiga goals in eight matches, but Carlos Vicente is the leading marksman for Alaves with the same total.
Betting Insights
- However, recent performance data suggests the hosts, who are priced narrowly favourites at 2.39, are a bit short for this game as Valencia are 3.56 and the draw 3.16.
- This Deportivo Alaves vs Valencia CF betting tips section highlights that Alaves have a decent record at their Mendizorrotza home with two wins, one draw and only one defeat in four games and Valencia have only scored three times in their four away LaLiga trips, an average of 0.75 goals per game.
Prediction
