Deportivo Alaves Preview – Can Alaves halt losing slump?
Monday night’s hosts, Deportivo Alaves, will be keen to put an end to their losing slump in La Liga when they entertain Real Betis at their Estadio de Mendizorroza having lost their last three league matches on the trot.
Recent defeats to Real Madrid, Mallorca and Valencia have resulted in Alaves occupying a place in ten bottom three of the Spanish top flight and indeed, the hosts have managed to win just one of their opening seven games of this new campaign.
That rare win came in the shape of a decent 1-0 home win over Atletico Madrid but although they suffered a heavy 4-1 loss to Real Madrid in their opening home game, three of Alaves’s four home games to date have resulted in under 2.5 goals.
Real Betis Preview – Can Betis bounce back?
Real Betis were handed a 2-0 defeat away from home at Villarreal just before the international break which ended a promising four-match unbeaten run in La Liga and included wins against Granada, Osasuna and Getafe while also drawing with Espanyol.
Betis currently sit mid-table in 10th place in the La Liga standings having lost just twice in their opening eight matches of this new season while away from home, the visitors have made themselves tough to beat, losing just one of their last nine games on the road.
Six of Real Betis’s last nine away games have also been under 2.5 goals and this could be another low-scoring encounter on Monday night.
