Prediction: 1-1
Alaves
Osasuna and Alaves square off against each other at Estadio El Sadar in what is expected to be a close La Liga encounter. Los Rojillos head into Monday’s encounter following a 1-1 draw with Las Palmas and, no doubt, they would be happy with one point from the round 27 clash as well. All Ante Budimir, Jesus Areso, Juan Cruz, and Jose Manuel Arnaiz are sidelined with injuries, while Ruben Pena is a major doubt. Experienced defender David Garcia is back to the starting XI after serving a one-game ban.
The visitors, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Mallorca in their last league match. Yet another share of spoils is on the horizon as Osasuna and Alaves seem to be evenly matched at the moment. The Basques will be without Luis Rioja, Alex Sola, Andoni Gorosabel, and Aleksandar Sedlar in Monday’s showdown.
Highlighted Player (David Garcia):
David Garcia is a Spanish player who started his youth career at Maspalomas. After making 65 appearances for Vecindario in lower leagues, he joined Las Palmas in 2003. David Garcia is a centre back, but he is capable of playing as a right back if needed. He was born on 25 February, 1982 and it is more than obvious that he dedicated his football career to Las Palmas.
Garcia made his professional debut in September, 2013 in a 2-1 victory at Elche. However, he made no more than seven league appearances for Las Palmas in the 2003/2004 season. David Garcia, though, quickly established himself as a first-team regular and it has to be noted that he played 394 league games for los Amarillos until the 2016/2017 season.
He made 37 appearances for Las Palmas in the 2014/2015 Segunda Division campaign, helping the team secure promotion to the Spanish top flight, but he played no more than 19 games for the club in the 2015/2016 Primera Division campaign. His contract with Las Palmas expires on 30 June, 2017.
Highlighted Team (Alaves):
Alaves is a Spanish football club located in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Alava. The club were founded in 1921 and they play their home games at Estadio Mendizorrotza. The capacity of the stadium is 19,840 and it has to be noted that it is the third oldest stadium in Spanish football. After spending several years in the Spanish Segunda Division, los Babazorros returned to the top flight in 2016.
The color of Alaves’ home kit is blue and white and the club’s local rivals are fellow Basque sides Real Sociedad, Athletic Club, Osasuna and Eibar. Alaves made it to the UEFA CUP final in 2001, but they were beaten by Liverpool 5-4 in a thrilling football clash. Anyhow, that is still regarded as the club’s biggest success. Los Babazorros booked their place in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals on four occasions and they have yet to win the Primera Division trophy.
