Alaves vs Valencia

Alaves host Valencia in a Monday night Spanish La Liga fixture, with both teams seeking to build some form in this campaign.

The hosts have a good record in this fixture and will also be keen to make it count in front of their fans. They should show their quality against the visitors, who are poor on their travels.

Alaves News

It has been a mixed start to the season for Alaves, who have picked up three wins and played out two draws in their opening eight La Liga matches. They are currently 10th in the table, three points off the top six, and will be keen to push for a European finish this term.

Alaves come into this clash off the back of a 3-1 home victory over Elche in their previous La Liga fixture. That result is part of a solid home record for Eduardo Coudet's team, who are unbeaten in three of their four league matches at the Estadio Mendizorrotza.

Goals have come easily for Alaves this season, and they have found the net in their last four home matches, while opening the scoring in two of these fixtures. They have also won at least one half in two of those four matches.

Valencia News

Valencia have been a bit unconvincing this season, with just two wins from their eight La Liga matches so far. They are currently in the bottom half of the table and sit just two points above the relegation zone.

Los Che travel to the Estadio Mendizorrotza off the back of a 2-1 defeat at Girona last time out in La Liga. They fell behind in the first half and attempted a fightback with Diego Lopez getting an equalizer, but could not hold on for the point.

That result is part of a poor record on the road for Valencia, who are yet to win a single away game this season. Carlos Corberan's team have lost three of their last four matches on their travels, with a 6-0 thrashing at Barcelona among their results.

Head to Head

Valencia have 10 wins while Alaves have picked up eight victories, with four draws in the last 22 matches. However, the hosts are unbeaten in the last five meetings, earning four wins on this run, including a 1-0 home victory in the last clash back in May.

Verdict

CD Alaves v Valencia

Alaves will come into this clash keen to build on their fine record in this fixture and could be tipped to score first for the sixth straight game against Valencia. Having won at least one half in the last five meetings, the home team could be set for a similar pattern on Monday.

The hosts are unbeaten in three of their last four home matches and have also won four of the last five meetings with Valencia at the Estadio Mendizorrotza. They should claim the upper hand once again, with Los Che winless on their travels that season.
