On Tuesday, Barcelona won handsomely 5-0 in the Champions League against Young Boys, and now they can focus on La Liga for a while before moving on to the international break. Deportivo Alavés will be the home team at Mendizorrotza on Sunday and the goal is to take at least one point from the top of the league. Alavés is a very difficult team to beat at home, but on the other hand, Hansi Flick's team has been in great shape since the beginning of the season. How will the match go?
Alavés, commanded by Luis García Plaza, is currently eleventh, which means they are firmly in the midtable. In light of the goal expectations, the midfield is currently a fair investment for Alavés. Now the Basques have lost three times in the last four games, so it would be nice to go to the international break with a decent result. Alavés have not yet lost home games this season!
Alaves last 7 games with also xG-numbers below the score:
At home 2-1-0, although the Betis result was a lucky one.
Aleksandar Sedlar and Hugo Novoa are still undergoing more detailed fitness tests before the match, and if the two are fit to play, Alavés' injury room is empty! Abdel Abqar has recovered from his knocks. Regarding starting-11, the biggest question mark is who will start upfront for the hosts. Toni Martínez, who came from Porto in the summer, is the most likely option.
Barça suffered their first injury of this league season last weekend when Flick's crew lost 4-2 away to Osasuna. The rotation was practiced a little too harshly and Barcelona were confused. Tuesday's Young Boys game gave more encouragement when they hammered their Swiss guests with a regular lineup.
Flick probably won't rest too much on Sunday, as the international break is about to start. Marc-André Ter Stegen, Ronald Araújo, Gavi, Andreas Christensen, Fermín López, Dani Olmo and Marc Bernal will continue unavailable. Wojciech Szczesny, who was brought out of retirement to replace Ter Stegen, is hardly in the lineup yet. There may be a goalkeeping problem today.
Barcelona's bold way of playing involves risks, and I see Alaves scoring at least once. If they score twice the +0.5 handicap feels a lot safer, if you can ever say so when going against Barcelona who are brilliant at times! Too many times..
We need a bit of luck here too, but the odds are good enough for me. Good luck!

周二，巴塞罗那在欧冠联赛中以5-0大胜Young Boys，现在他们可以把注意力集中在西甲联赛上，然后再转向国际比赛日。拉科鲁尼亚将在周日主场迎战门迪佐罗扎，他们的目标是从联赛积分榜上至少取一分。alavsamas是一支很难在主场击败的球队，但另一方面，Hansi Flick的球队从赛季开始就一直保持着良好的状态。比赛结果如何?
由Luis García Plaza领导的alav<s:1>，目前排名第11，这意味着他们稳居中游。考虑到进球的期望，中场目前对阿拉维斯来说是一个公平的投资。现在巴斯克人在过去的四场比赛中输了三场，所以带着一个不错的结果去参加国际比赛日是很好的。阿拉维斯本赛季还没有输过主场比赛!
阿拉维斯最近7场比赛的得分也低于x - g:
主场2-1-0，尽管贝蒂斯的结果是幸运的。
赛德拉尔和诺沃亚在比赛前还在接受更详细的体能测试，如果两人都能上场，那么阿拉维斯的伤病室就空了!Abdel Abqar已经从伤病中恢复过来。关于首发11人，最大的疑问是谁将在东道主面前首发。托尼Martínez，夏天从波尔图转会而来，是最有可能的选择。
上周末，弗里克的球队在客场4-2输给奥萨苏纳的比赛中，巴拉帕拉遭遇了本赛季的第一次伤病。轮换有点过于严厉，让巴萨感到困惑。周二与年轻男孩队的比赛给了他们更多的鼓励，他们用常规阵容击败了瑞士客人。
弗里克可能不会在周日休息太多，因为国际比赛日即将开始。施特根、罗纳德Araújo、加维、克里斯滕森、Fermín López、奥尔莫和伯纳尔将继续缺阵。沃伊切赫·什琴斯尼(Wojciech Szczesny)顶替特尔·斯特根(Ter Stegen)复出，但他还没有进入首发阵容。今天守门员可能有问题。
巴萨大胆的打法也有风险，我看到阿拉维斯至少进过一次球。如果他们得分两倍，+0.5的障碍感觉更安全，如果你能在对阵巴塞罗那的时候这样说的话。太多次了……
我们也需要一点运气，但对我来说机会已经足够了。好运！
