Deportivo Alavés vs Girona

Current streaks

Recent form

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés are currently enduring a challenging run of form, having gone seven matches without a victory. Their last six games have been particularly notable, with five consecutive draws followed by a narrow loss to Atlético de Madrid. This streak of draws is quite remarkable and unusual in top-flight football. Despite their lack of wins, Alavés have shown resilience, scoring in each of their last six matches and maintaining a respectable goals-per-game average of 1.5. However, their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded in every match during this period and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last seven outings. The team's matches have been entertaining for neutrals, with both teams scoring in all of the last six games and 67% of these fixtures seeing over 2.5 goals. Their recent 2-2 draws against Valencia, Osasuna, and Deportiva Minera highlight their ability to compete but also their struggle to secure victories.

Girona

Girona's recent form has been inconsistent, with a notable downturn in results leading up to their most recent match. The Catalan side have experienced a challenging run, suffering three consecutive defeats across all competitions before bouncing back with a convincing 3-0 victory against Real Valladolid in their latest La Liga encounter. This win ended a four-match winless streak and provided a much-needed clean sheet, their second in six games. Despite their current 8th position in the league, Girona have struggled defensively, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game in their last six matches. Interestingly, two-thirds of their recent fixtures have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards high-scoring affairs. The team's ability to find the net has been somewhat limited, averaging just one goal per game during this period, which has contributed to their negative goal difference of -2 over the last six matches.

Recent home/away form

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés have shown mixed form at home in their recent fixtures, with their last six games at Mendizorrotza yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Basque side have struggled to find consistency, failing to secure back-to-back victories during this period. Notably, Alavés have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, particularly their 3-2 defeat to Real Valladolid and their 3-0 loss to Barcelona. Despite their inconsistent results, Alavés have managed to score in five of their last six home matches, averaging 1.17 goals per game. However, their defence has been somewhat porous, conceding 1.5 goals per game on average. The team's inability to keep clean sheets, with only one in their last six home games, has contributed to their current 16th position in La Liga.

Girona

Girona's recent away form has been underwhelming, with just one win in their last six matches on the road. The Catalan side have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring a mere 0.67 goals per game whilst conceding an average of 1.5. Their last six away fixtures have seen them fail to score in half of the matches, including a heavy 4-0 defeat to PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League. Despite managing two clean sheets, Girona have been unable to capitalise, drawing both of those matches. The team's goal difference of -5 over this period highlights their defensive vulnerabilities, with a particularly poor showing in European competition. Interestingly, there's an even split between high and low-scoring games, with 50% of their away matches seeing over 2.5 goals.
