Alaves vs Celta Vigo Prediction & Betting Tips (22 November)

Deportivo Alaves cannot string together victories in La Liga, being satisfied only with good performances at home, where the Basque club has only lost once so far, against Sevilla FC. Before the international break, Alaves traveled to bottom side Girona where they lost 1-0, allowing the Catalans to get back to the bottom of the table. Still 10th in the elite, at home, the local team remains on 3 matches without defeat including 2 victories against Espanyol 2-1 and Elche 3-1. Opposite, Celta Vigo came up against the reigning champion before the international break, FC Barcelona, ​​against whom it could not do much to avoid the 2-4 defeat.

The Galicians thus saw their series of 8 matches without defeat in all competitions, including 6 victories, come to an end. Before losing to Barça, the Celticos took on Dinamo Zagreb 0-3, PAOK Salonika 3-1 and OGC Nice 2-1 in the Europa League as well as Levante 1-2 and Osasuna 2-3 in the league. In the ranking, Celta occupies 13th position. 

The tactical battle between these two sides promises to be intriguing, as Alavés’ compact defensive shape will be tested by Celta’s attempts to dominate possession and create openings through Aspas and Jørgen Strand Larsen. Recent matches suggest that Alavés are comfortable absorbing pressure and striking on the counter, while Celta’s inconsistency in front of goal has been a recurring issue. Both teams have shown flashes of quality but also vulnerabilities, particularly when forced to chase games. The narrative of the past two months has been one of survival instincts, with each side desperate to accumulate points before the winter break. Fans of both clubs are aware that this fixture could prove pivotal in shaping momentum heading into the second half of the season.

Given the recent form and the patterns observed in their latest outings, this encounter has the makings of a tight, low-scoring affair. Alavés’ defensive discipline and home advantage could tilt the balance slightly in their favor, while Celta Vigo’s struggles to convert chances may once again haunt them. With both managers prioritizing caution over risk, the likelihood of a cagey contest is high. Therefore, the most realistic prediction points towards a narrow victory for Alavés, with a 1:0 correct score standing out as the most plausible outcome in this LaLiga clash.
