Alaves only hold a 13.0% chance of clinching victory, while the likelihood of a draw stands at 12.0%. Atletico Madrid, currently sitting at 3rd in La Liga, are in a strong position to secure a Champions League spot, whereas Alaves are fighting against relegation in 17th place. Additionally, the predicted outcome suggests a match with under 2.5 goals, given a 45.0% probability for over 2.5 goals.

Match Analysis

In their recent outings, Alaves have shown resilience with a mixed bag of results; they managed a notable 1-0 victory against Sociedad at home and secured a 1-1 draw away at Sevilla. However, their narrow 1-0 defeat to Real Madrid highlights the challenges they face against top-tier teams. Despite averaging only 0.4 goals per game in their last five matches, their defense has been relatively solid, conceding 0.8 goals on average, with two clean sheets. Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, have showcased their attacking prowess with a 3-0 triumph over Vallecano and a high-scoring 4-2 win against Valladolid. Nonetheless, an unexpected 1-0 loss to Las Palmas indicates some vulnerability away from home. Atletico's average of 1.4 goals scored per game, coupled with 1.0 goals conceded, reflects a balanced performance. Their advanced metrics, such as expected goals scored (1.266) and conceded (1.066), suggest a well-rounded team capable of controlling both ends of the pitch.

Final Prediction

Atletico Madrid's formidable form and higher league standing give them a significant edge over Alaves. Their ability to score and maintain defensive solidity, even amidst occasional lapses, makes them the favorites in this encounter. A key factor to watch will be Atletico's attacking duo, aiming to exploit Alaves' defensive structure and secure a vital away victory.
