Sevilla vs Alaves Predictions

• Six of Alaves’s last seven fixtures have featured under 2.5 goals
• Sevilla have won only two of their last seven assignments
• These sides have drawn 13 league games between them this term

Sevilla slide likely to continue

Sevilla booked their spot in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey at the expense of Racing Ferrol on Sunday but their league performances have been poor this term and punters should not expect much from their clash with Alaves.

Sevilla edged Segunda Division outfit Racing Ferrol 2-1 last time out, grabbing the winner in the 87th minute, 12 minutes after their opponents had a player sent off.

But this season wins have been hard to come by for the Andlausians, who have recorded maximum points on only three occasions in La Liga this season.

Their next opponents Alaves are just one point and one place above them in the standings and it should be a cagey contest at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Friday.

Alaves should keep things tight again

Alaves have been especially shot-shy this term, managing only 15 goals in 19 matches in the league, and they are often reliant on their defence to secure them points.

They have kept things tight in both of their games in 2024, drawing 1-1 away to Real Sociedad before edging Real Betis 1-0 in the Copa del Rey, and under 2.5 goals could be the best bet in this one.

As for a correct score, these sides have racked up 13 La Liga draws between them this term and the stalemate looks the way to go.
