Deportivo Alavés Leganés betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash should be one of the most balanced of this round of the Spanish Championship, considering that it puts face-to-face two teams that go through complicated situations and need the victory to try to distance themselves from the relegation zone. The home team has difficulty in maintaining possession of the ball and also at the time of finishing, while its defense has been failing in many ways, especially in the coverage of the sides and in the defensive set pieces. Leganes has even more difficult to get the ball in its feet, and has also been inefficient to complete, but its defense stands out in the aerial game and tackles. Thus, as we will have two teams in the field that do not have a good offensive power, it is a good option to bet on a few goals.

Preview
Deportivo Alavés and Leganés meet at Estadio de Mendizorroza, in a match for the 20th round of the Primera División. Leganés got a home win by (1‑0), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 18‑08‑2017. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 1 win and 2 draws in the last 3 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 21‑01‑2017, in a match for the Primera División, they tied (2‑2). The goals of the match were scored by Laguardia (11' ) and Edgar Méndez (51' ), for Deportivo Alavés, and by Guerrero (45' ) and Pablo Ínsua (84' ), for Leganés. The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Deportivo Alavés presents significant differences between home and away results.

Analysis Alavés

The home team is currently in the 17th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 6 wins and 13 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Athletic Club, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Sevilla, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 9 wins and 6 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 14 conceded. They come to this match after a away loss against Valencia by (2‑1). For the league, Deportivo Alavés won 12 points out of 30 possible points, after 4 wins and 6 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 14 of their 19 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 10 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 8 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Alavés has a chance to score its fourth consecutive win in the Spanish Championship, thus compensating for the not-so-good performance away from home, where it has lost its last two games. In the last round, the team did not have a great performance, finishing with 38% of possession and less finalizations than the opponent, but still managed to leave with the victory by the minimum score against Sevilla. Based on the numbers of the competition, it is possible to notice that the team has been characterized by a very inefficient offensive sector, that did not score goals in nine occasions, and now figures among the three worst. Another weakness of the team is possession of the ball, which has the worst league average. The coach has been testing various tactical formations, and in this duel there must be some changes between the initial eleven.

Confirmed Lineup: Fernando Pacheco, Martín Aguirregabiria, Alexis, Rodrigo Ely, Laguardia, Pina, Ibai Gómez, Daniel Torres, Pedraza, Munir, John Guidetti.
Coach: L. García Plaza.

Analysis Leganés

The away team is currently in the 13th position of the league, with 24 points won, after 7 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Real Sociedad, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Real Betis, by (3‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 1 draw and 8 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 10 conceded. In their last match, for the Copa del Rey, they got a home loss against Real Madrid by (0‑1). In the last 10 away league matches Leganés has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 6 away matches. In their away league matches there are a few frequent results at half‑time: 0‑0 (4 out of 10 matches) and 1‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (46'‑60'); they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Leganes recently had a very difficult phase in the Spanish League when it went on to accumulate four consecutive defeats, but then managed to sketch a reaction, but now it comes again from a defeat. At the time, the team had only 25% possession and missed many passes, but still managed to annoy Betis, with two goals, having suffered the goal of defeat in the final minutes of the match. Although it has conceded three goals in this match, the defensive system of the team remains one of the least leaked of the competition, losing only to Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in this matter. However, one of the weaknesses of the team has been the lack of quality in the exchange of passes, which has the second highest average of errors. The 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-1-1 should be the likely tactical scheme adopted in this duel by coach Garitano, who should make some changes in the starting lineup.

Confirmed Lineup: Pichu Cuéllar, Zaldúa, Raúl García, Martín Mantovani, Dimitrios Siovas, Gabriel Pires, Nabil El Zhar, Rubén Pérez, Eraso, Omar Ramos, Claudio Beauvue.
Coach: J. Idiakez Barkaiztegui.
