Alaves take on the visitors Granada in the round 39 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Friday, April 5th at Estadio Mendizorrotza (Vitoria-Gasteiz).
Alaves spent the previous six seasons in La Liga. Moreover, immediately after their rise to the elite division, the team made it to the final of the Spanish Cup. But gradually the results deteriorated, and a year ago, it ended up in 20th, last place in the La Liga table. Nevertheless, the team automatically began to be considered a favorite of the season at a lower level. And in general, it corresponds to such a status with its results - it is now one of the leaders of the draw. Of course, a rough patch came at the junction of winter and spring, when they could not win four times in a row. But since the end of March, they have been able to gain good momentum again and return to the top two. And now they have to play against direct competitors. In the last round, they visited the field of "Levante", which resulted in an undisputed defeat, 0-2. "Granada": statistics

Not long ago, Granada were hanging out in Segunda. Then they were lucky to find a talented coach, Diego Martinez Penas. He not only quickly returned them to La Liga, but also immediately raised them to the Europa League. There, the Spaniards also showed themselves decently, making it to the playoffs. But then, in 2021, the coach left, and without him, the team dramatically lost the fight for survival a year ago. They managed to score 38 points - 1 less than "Cadiz", "Mallorca", and "Getafe". It was clear that the team was required to immediately return back by default. But at the same time, the start did not go well, and at the end of autumn, they even changed the coach, betting on Paco Lopez. He did well, especially after the New Year, in 2023. But after a 10-game unbeaten run (with 7 victories), in April, the "misfortunes" began to happen more and more frequently. Yes, they beat "Las Palmas" 2-1, but at the same time, they were left without points with Hihon's "Sporting", "Zaragoza", and "Racing". In the last round, they played against the league leaders, "Eibar". They managed to draw by scoring an own goal by Blanco-Leshchuk (the same one who played for Lviv's "Karpaty" and Donetsk's "Shakhtar") closer to the end of the second half.
The teams first played in 2016 and have played a total of 9 matches. "Alaves" won the debut match and added another victory in the spring of 2021. All other matches brought "Granada" the maximum points. Including in December, when the "Nasrids" won 3-1 in their home game against the "bean-eaters". "Alaves" is considered a favorite, but mainly because they play at home. However, they are not shining, as well as the guests, and it is important to achieve success, rather than show bright football. We recommend betting on "total goals under 2.0".
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
