Current streaks

Recent form

Athletic Club

Athletic Club have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six matches. The Basque side have been particularly strong defensively, keeping three clean sheets and conceding just 0.83 goals per game on average. Their 3-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano stands out as the highest-scoring match in this run. Interestingly, 67% of their recent games have seen under 2.5 goals, highlighting a trend towards tighter, low-scoring affairs. Despite their solid league position of 4th, Athletic Club's Europa League campaign took a significant blow with a heavy 3-0 home defeat to Manchester United. However, they've managed to bounce back in La Liga, securing a goalless draw against local rivals Real Sociedad in their most recent outing.

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés have shown mixed form in their recent matches, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six games. The team has been struggling for goals, scoring only three times in this period, averaging a mere 0.5 goals per game. However, their defence has been relatively solid, conceding just four goals and keeping three clean sheets. Notably, all of Alavés' last six matches have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals in 100% of these games. Their most recent outing, a goalless draw against Atlético de Madrid, exemplifies their defensive resilience but also highlights their offensive challenges. Despite their recent struggles, Alavés have managed to secure important victories against Real Sociedad and Girona, which could be crucial in their fight to avoid relegation from the 17th position in La Liga.

Recent home/away form

Athletic Club

Athletic Club have been in impressive form at home, with a run of four consecutive wins before their recent Europa League defeat to Manchester United. Their home record shows a strong defensive performance, keeping three clean sheets in their last six matches and conceding an average of just 0.83 goals per game. The Basque side have been particularly potent in European competitions, scoring three goals each against AS Roma and Rangers. While their goal-scoring average of 1.5 per game is respectable, it's worth noting that half of their recent home matches have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting potential for high-scoring encounters. Despite the recent loss, Athletic Club's home form has been crucial to their current 4th position in La Liga, making their stadium a formidable venue for visiting teams.

Deportivo Alavés

Deportivo Alavés have shown remarkable resilience in their recent away form, remaining unbeaten in their last five matches on the road. Whilst they've managed only one win in this stretch, their ability to secure draws has been noteworthy, with four of their last five away games ending level. The Basque side have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, particularly the thrilling 3-3 draw against Leganés, which stands out as their highest-scoring away match in this period. Alavés have demonstrated consistency in both attack and defence, scoring and conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game over their last six away fixtures. Their tendency to be involved in tight contests is further evidenced by the fact that 67% of these matches have seen both teams score, with the same percentage featuring under 2.5 goals. Despite their lowly league position, Alavés' recent away form suggests they are a tough side to beat on their travels.
