The hosts are seven points behind league leaders Barcelona.

With the November international football break now over, club football is set to resume again. This week, LaLiga giants Atletico de Madrid are set to host Deportivo Alavés for their 14th league game of season 2024-25. The stakes are completely different for both sides here, but one thing is for sure, a victory will be in the minds of all.

Atletico de Madrid have had an expected result in the first 13 games, the club are in the top three of the Spanish top division, just below the usual FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. The side have won their last two games in the league and also earned an away win against Paris Saint Germain in the UEFA Champions League.

Deportivo Alavés haven’t lived up to the expectations yet this season, after finishing 10th last time. The side are having a depleting form, having won only four games in 13 games, and had just one draw and eight losses. After a good start, they have had a series of losses in the league since September 14, except for one instance earlier this month, where they edged past RCD Mallorca.

Kick-Off:

Saturday, November 23 at 8:45 PM IST

Location: Riyadh Air Metropolitano, Madrid.

Form

Atletico de Madrid (in all competitions): W-W-W-W-L

Deportivo Alavés (in all competitions): L-W-W-L-L

Players to Watch:

Antoine Griezmann (Atletico de Madrid)

The club legend is showing glimpses of his past antics this season too, having already netted three goals, and four assists in 13 league games. In the Champions League too, he has a goal and two assists already.

The No.7 has contributed equally well in both the positions he masters, be it of a centre-forward or a striker. Now, he should be eyeing for more goals here against a vulnerable Alaves defence to increase his tally.

Ander Guevara (Deportivo Alavés)

While Diego Simeone likes to play his side on a park-the-bus approach, the midfield remains blank to operate. Though it will be tough to match the physicality and skills of Atletico de Madrid players, the midfield of Alaves should really try to dominate the game with passing football. 

If they are able to take this risk and execute well, the hosts will find it tough to score. And for controlling the midfield, and operating the passing game, the team needs to trust on captain Guevara. He can brilliantly pass the ball around, and his off-the-ball movements can also be put to use to diffuse potential threats.

Match Facts:

  • Atletico Madrid have the lowest number of losses in the ongoing LaLiga.
  • Atletico have faced the lowest number of goals in the ongoing LaLiga, only seven.
  • Deportivo Alavés have faced the second-highest number of goals in the league.

Match Prediction for Atletico Madrid vs Alavés

Atletico Madrid are expected to earn an easy win against Deportivo Alavés, owing to a much stronger side, better form, strong defence, and an overwhelming home advantage. However, unlike other games, they might take an attacking approach here to improve their goal difference, and in the process, they would concede a couple on the counter.
