Alaves vs Almeria Prediction: The future home team will win

Opening Sunday pool of the 12th round of the Spanish La Liga will be a duel between Alaves and Almeria, which will be held in the Basque Country. Bookmakers are on the side of the hosts of the field in the pair, who in the Spanish championship have not won since the second of September and the match against Valencia.

After the international break, Alaves played three official matches. In midweek, the Basques beat Deportivo Murcia in the Spanish Cup. Before that, they played a draw with Villarreal and lost to Atletico 1:2. Before the start of the 12th round, Alaves was in 17th place in the standings of the Spanish championship and had 9 points, which is three points more than Celta, located in the departure zone. In the upcoming game, Alaves will not help Simeone; the participation of Benavides is in doubt.

Almeria has only three points in La Liga 2023/24, and no wins after 11 played rounds with a goal difference of 14:31. In the midweek, the future guests won in the Spanish Cup against Talavera 2:0, and before that, they lost two matches after the break to Girona and Las Palmas. At the moment, the future guests are the worst team in La Liga, with the weakest defense in the division.

The two outsiders meet, so we doubt the upcoming match will be rich in goals because neither Alaves nor Almeria can boast a strong attacking line. As for the outcome, we are on the side of the future hosts of the field. The Basques have been and remain a home team, while Almeria has lost 73% of their matches in La Liga 2023/24.
