Alaves and Villarreal face each other at Mendizorroza in what should be an entertaining La Liga encounter. The hosts aim to return to winning ways after a 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano, having previously impressed in their first home game of the season with a 3-0 win over Getafe. Alaves have been solid defensively in recent weeks, conceding just 0.60 goals per game across their last 10 matches and keeping five clean sheets. Mariano Diaz could be rewarded with a starting berth after scoring as a substitute against Rayo, while there are no fresh injury worries for the hosts.
Villarreal, meanwhile, showed plenty of character to hold Atletico Madrid to a 2-2 draw at the Wanda Metropolitano. Their recent games have produced plenty of goals, with 70% of their last 10 matches seeing both teams score. Gerard Moreno is pushing for a start after coming off the bench to score against Atleti, while Alassane Diatta returns from suspension. Villarreal have also conceded in every one of their last seven away games.
As 72% of the previous H2H encounters went over this line, we are tempted to place our bets on Over 2.5 goals, alongside BTTS and Over 0.5 goals first half.
This Primera Division match will be played on Friday 28 August 2026 at 20:30.
