Real Madrid – Alaves

Match analysis

Real Madrid host Alavés in what promises to be a tightly contested LaLiga clash, with the Catalan giants perched second on 12 points after four wins and a single loss, boasting a formidable 14‑4 goal difference. Alavés sit just behind in third place, having accumulated 10 points from three victories, one draw and one defeat, and they carry a respectable 11‑5 margin. Both sides have shown a knack for finding the net, but Madrid’s superior conversion rate could prove decisive on their own turf. The encounter will likely determine whether Real can widen the gap at the top or if Alavés can close in on the leaders and keep the race for the title alive.
