Match Analysis

Reason For Alaves vs Real Madrid Betting Tips

• Both teams have scored in five of Alaves’ last six outings at Mendizorroza.
• Both teams have also netted in four of Real Madrid’s last six away trips in La Liga.
• Two of the last three meetings between the sides have seen both teams score, including Alaves’ 1-2 success at the Bernabeu earlier this season.

Both Teams to Strike in the Basque Country

Second placed Real Madrid travel to Mendizorroza this Saturday seeking to overturn their 1-2 defeat against Alaves at the Bernabeu earlier this season.

Los Blancos are rightly favourites to claim all three points in this one, however, Los Blancos are poor value at around the 2/5 mark based on recent results.

Defeats to Athletic Bilbao (1-2) and Alcoyano (2-1 AET) in the Supercopa and Copa Del Rey respectively mean Zinedine Zidane’s side have now won just one of their last five outings in all competitions, while they have only managed draws against Osasuna (0-0) and Elche (1-1) on their last two away trips in La Liga.

With 17^th placed Alaves also unfancied based on their league position and three straight league losses, our attention turns to the both teams to score market and we fancy both of these sides to get on the scoresheet at Mendizorroza.

Five of Alaves’ last six starts here have seen both teams hit the net, with the same also applying to four of Madrid’s last six on the road.

With both teams also scoring in October’s reverse fixture, we think this rates the most solid wager for Saturday night’s action and we’re also going for a 1-2 victory in favour of the visitors.
