Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
After failing to turn their dominance into victory in a goalless draw with Cartagena, Villarreal B will look to return to winning ways in La Liga 2 when they take on Deportivo Alaves on Matchday 30. The Yellow Submarine do not seem to be at their sharpest, but it is well known that the reserve teams are not illegible to take part in the playoffs. All Collado, Nino, and Mbacke are pushing for a start after as Miguel Alvarez should opt to make changes to the team that suffered a 2-0 loss to Eibar at the weekend.
The Basques, on the other hand, aim to climb to automatic promotion berth, and seeing the Villarreal B suffered a dip in form, we are tempted to put our money on the promotion-chasing visitors. As for the away team, defender Abdel Abqar is banned for the match. Alaves defeated both Mirandes and Zaragoza in the last two away games.
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.
