Valencia 2-2 Deportivo Alavés

Current streaks

Recent form

Valencia

Valencia's recent form has been concerning, with the team currently languishing in 20th position in La Liga. The club have struggled to find consistency, alternating between wins and losses in their last six matches across all competitions. Their league form is particularly worrying, with three consecutive La Liga defeats against Rayo Vallecano, Real Valladolid, and RCD Mallorca, before a draw with RCD Espanyol halted the losing streak. Valencia's goal-scoring record has been underwhelming, averaging just one goal per game in their last six matches, while their defence has been equally shaky, conceding at the same rate. The team have managed only one clean sheet in their last six games, coming in a Copa del Rey victory against Parla Escuela. Despite their struggles, Valencia have shown some resilience in cup competitions, securing wins against lower-league opposition in the Copa del Rey.

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés are currently experiencing a challenging run of form, having gone six games without a victory. Their last six matches have resulted in four draws and two losses, with the team failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these fixtures. Notably, Alavés have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. The team's defensive struggles are evident, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game over this period. Despite their difficulties, Alavés have shown resilience in attack, managing to score in five out of their last six matches. Their ability to find the net has contributed to both teams scoring in 83% of these games, suggesting that whilst they are struggling to win, they are at least providing entertainment for their supporters.

Recent home/away form

Valencia

Valencia's home form has been inconsistent in recent matches, with their last six games at the Mestalla yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. Despite their struggles in the league, where they currently sit in 20th position, Valencia have shown some offensive prowess at home, scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game. Their defensive record is relatively solid, conceding just 1.17 goals per game and keeping two clean sheets in this period. The most notable result was a high-scoring 4-2 victory over Real Betis, which bucked the trend of generally low-scoring affairs, as 67% of their home matches saw under 2.5 goals. Interestingly, both teams have scored in only half of these games, suggesting Valencia have been involved in some tight contests. While there are no significant winning or losing streaks to report, Valencia's inability to string together consecutive home victories has likely contributed to their poor league position.

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés have struggled to find consistency in their recent away form, with their last six matches yielding just one win, two draws, and three losses. The team have failed to keep a clean sheet in five of these six games, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per match. Interestingly, their away fixtures have been relatively high-scoring affairs, with 67% of these games seeing over 2.5 goals. Alavés have shown resilience in their last two away matches, securing 2-2 draws against both Osasuna and Deportiva Minera. However, they are currently on a three-match winless streak away from home in La Liga, which has contributed to their precarious 17th position in the league table. Their sole away victory in this period came in the Copa del Rey against lower-league opposition Compostela.
