Prediction: Deportivo Alaves 0-2 Barcelona
Deportivo Alaves find themselves in the relegation zone, and while a win could potentially lift them to 13th, their recent form of just one victory in six LaLiga games does not inspire confidence against the league leaders. Barcelona, having already secured the LaLiga title, might be playing with slightly less pressure, but their relentless pursuit of a 100-point season means motivation will still be high.
Barcelona's statistical strengths are overwhelming, particularly in finishing chances, creating opportunities through individual skill and wing play, and their general attacking prowess. They also boast a strong defensive record, especially away from home against Alaves. Forecasts suggest Barcelona will score from direct free-kicks, individual skill, and wing play. Given Alaves' weaknesses in finishing scoring chances, defending against skillful players, and protecting a lead, Barcelona's offensive firepower should prove too much. The visitors' ability to control the game with possession football and short passes will likely stifle any Alaves attacks.
