Almeria vs Alaves Prediction & Betting Tips (26 January)

A week after holding Girona to a 0-0 draw, Almeria offered a very good performance last weekend on the Santiago Bernabéu pitch against Real Madrid but despite their two-goal advantage at half-time, this team was conceded a comeback in the second half 3-2 FM in an extremely questionable context. A defeat which has caused much ink to flow but which further confirms a possible relegation of La Union at the end of the season since it has not yet won a single match. It sees the first non-relegation Sevilla FC on ten points now, more than three victories apart... This Deportivo Alaves team had a very good summer transfer window and it is starting to bear fruit.

Indeed, we talk more about a possible 10th place in La Liga than the race to maintain when we talk about this formation which is nevertheless promoted. Last weekend, the Basques even grabbed 3 points against a candidate engaged in the fight for maintenance, Cadiz 1-0. Conclusion, since its defeat at home against Real Madrid during the last match of 2023 0-1, El Glorioso has not lost in the league. He has therefore just completed three matches without defeat, including another success obtained on the turf of Sevilla FC, also a competitor in the race to maintain 2-3.

Booked against Real Madrid in a match where he was also a scorer, Ramazani will be suspended for accumulation of yellow cards this evening. Note that the unfortunate Ibrahima Koné (ex-Lorient) is still on the sidelines while Cesar Montes works away from the group in training. Young midfielder Puigmal is uncertain while the important Leo Baptistao (4 goals this season) will return from suspension. Boys like Baba (Ghana), Mendes (Guinea-Bissau) and Sanca (Guinea-Bissau) went to the CAN but their nations are already eliminated and seeing them at least on the scoresheet this evening would not be ruled out.

. Arribas (ex-Real Madrid), author of 5 goals in La Liga, will be there like the former OM resident, Luis Suarez, recently returned from his broken fibula (4 goals in 10 appearances in La Liga). In terms of transfer window, note the recent arrivals of Luka Romero (AC Milan, loan) and Radovanovic (Kortrijk).
