Real Madrid vs Alaves Prediction & Betting Tips (24 September)

Although they remain firmly in the mix to secure a playoff place, the wheels have started to come off for Alaves in recent months, with Alaves’s men securing just 12 points from their last 11 games. Real Madrid have won several games at home this season, securing 14 wins from 19 matches and scoring 46 goals in total.

Alaves have now been involved in 13 consecutive LaLiga matches containing three goals or fewer, so the team in purple have been the epitome of consistency on this particular front. Given that 16 of the last 17 Real Madrid home games at the top table of the LaLiga have also been of the under 3.5 goals variety, any deviation from this script would represent a shock.

For a club with such pedigree and ambition, Real Madrid possess a truly awful defensive record of late, failing to keep a clean sheet in eight consecutive LaLiga matches, as well as managing just two shutouts in 20 top-flight fixtures. As for Alaves, they have both scored and conceded in six of their last eight games at this elite level.
