Leganés - Deportivo Alavés predictions

The hosts have everything stacking up against them in this match including the betting odds of 3.17. Leganés will indeed find it very hard to beat Deportivo Alavés here but nothing is impossible if you try hard enough.

Deportivo Alaves is a team that doesn't shy away from a challenge and we anticipate them giving their all in this matchup.

Although Leganés are coming on the back of a harsh 2:0 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Valencia , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

The away team’s previous La Liga outing was a close call from the get-go: betting odds saw the two teams as equally-matched, though Deportivo Alaves did have the support of their home fans. However, they quickly fell behind in the first half and failed to catch up until the bitter end, ultimately recording a 0:1 loss.

After recording more than 5 concessions in the previous 3 home games alone, confidence in Leganés and their ability to bank on home-field advantage is shaky.

Deportivo Alaves’s past two matches featured less than 2 goals. As such, going for markets such as Over 2.5 or Both Teams to Score is not recommended.

Leganés have not been recording great results so far, and online bookmakers aren’t predicting that to change. There’s still the bulk of the season to go through, though, so Leganés’s 17th spot can still be improved.

With another tough challenge ahead of them, things are starting to look grim for Alaves. They’re still in the relegation zone in round 24. It’s not over yet, but they’ll need to change something quickly if they’re planning on staying in the La Liga.

The season’s match history shows us these two teams tied in an earlier round. Deportivo Alaves may be the favourites, but they were unable to get the upper hand despite being the hosts last time.

The 1.51 offered for Under 2.5 Goals bets in this match may seem a bit risky considering the market, but they’re well worth it compared to the probability of the outcome. That said, it’s a solid choice for value, but not necessarily safety.
