Barcelona will on Sunday be at home against Alaves in their next Spanish La Liga match. After 12 rounds of play, Barcelona sit third in the standings while Alaves are down in 14th place. Barcelona have wobbled in recent outings and arrive for this match having lost twice in their last three games. Xavi Hernadez’s men were defeated 1-0 away to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League in their most recent outing. The loss put to a halt their 100% record in the competition. Before their continental sojourn, the Blaugrana earned a slim 1-0 victory away to Real Sociedad in the league. That win kept them within two points of second-placed Real Madrid who they had lost to just days prior. Barcelona have won 10 of the last 12 meetings with Alaves.

Alaves haven’t won away in La Liga for two years now. A 2-1 victory away to Cadiz in October of 2021 is the last time they bagged all three points in an away league match. Since then, they have picked up just five points out of a possible 63. As they have struggled to win games again this season, this could yet be another disappointing outing for the Basque club. Luis Garcia’s men have won their last two matches. The latest one, a 1-0 success at home against Almeria, preceded a 10-0 thumping of Deportivo Murcia in the Copa del Rey. El Glorioso have won three and drawn another three games to accumulate 12 points. They sit five points above the relegation zone.
