Deportivo Alavés - Rayo Vallecano predictions

Though we can call Deportivo Alavés the favourites in this matchup, Rayo Vallecano are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

Rayo Vallecano appear severely unprepared for a clash with Deportivo Alaves, to the point of being considered hard underdogs. We would consider even a draw a success, so the long 3.91 odds for an away win bit seem fitting.

Alaves went into their previous La Liga match on the back foot, yet managed to get a draw half-time result in spite of the home-field disadvantage. Their opponents, Osasuna , scored the deciding goal in the second half, resulting in a narrow 1:0 defeat in hte end.

The away team hit an impasse last round in their matchup against Cádiz, failing to take the victory as most La Liga betting predictions expected they would. Besides the fact they had home-field advantage, top bookmakers online offered prices of around Cádiz.

Only 1 or fewer goals were scored during the course of Alaves’s previous two away games. An Under marker might be worth considering here.

Based on their recent performance, Rayo Vallecano’s largest issue seems to be defence, especially in away games. With 7 conceded goals in their 3 previous visiting matches, Over 3.5 Goals markets seem like a solid betting option.

The last time we saw these two squads play against each other was earlier in this La Liga season. Alaves narrowly lost. With the home-field advantage on their side this time, however, most bookies see them as the favourites.

Despite being seen as underdogs by most online bookmakers, the visiting team will be able to give their all this Sunday. They have no reported injuries or suspensions going in, so at least they’ll be able to rely on their best players and strategies.

The risks involved in backing a BTTS bet for this match are minimal. Both Alaves and Rayo Vallecano have a history of confirming the market so the 1.80 odds offered at 1xbet is too good to pass up.
