Atlético Madrid - Deportivo Alavés predictions

Deportivo Alavés will have little to hope for against Atlético Madrid. The home charges are bursting with confidence and it would take a small miracle for the away team to take anything from this game.

From the present standpoint, the situation is clear as day. Considering the strength of Atletico Madrid and the 10.06 odds given to Deportivo Alaves to win, it is easy to conclude that a victory for the visiting team would be a surprising upset.

The home team are coming off of a 0:1 victory over Mallorca in the previous round. Their supporters had reasons to feel hopeful before that game’s kick-off – they were playing as visitors, but still had a mild advantage in terms of betting odds. They had to wait until the second half for the deciding goal, but they got there in the end.

Deportivo Alaves were priced 6.45 odds to win their previous La Liga away game, and also had to contend with playing as the away team. Quite predictably, they fell behind in the early game and eventually lost the showdown 3:0.

The fact that they’re playing at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano is a boost to Los Rojiblancos. They’ve thrived in their recent home games, managing to score more than 5 times over the previous

Deportivo Alaves may need more consistency in their defense if they want to get anywhere. They have more than 5 conceded goals over their 3 most recent home games, for instance.

Considering their strong relative form, the home team has a great shot at closing some of the 7 -point difference they need to take the lead in the standings.

Alaves are treading dangerously close to the relegation zone, though it’s too early in the season to lose hope. The match at Atletico Madrid does not look promising for them, however, with most betting predictions projecting that they’ll drop down even further.

Even though Atletico are the favourites to win this showdown, they’ve been known to have issues fighting Alaves in the past. For instance, they lost this matchup quite badly last season.

To balance out this match, we suggest taking a -1.5 Asian Handicap on the obvious favourites in this game. This should increase your returns substantially while still keeping things relatively risk-free.
