Alaves vs Espanyol

Alavés have lost four of their last six games against Espanyol in LaLiga (W1 D1), one more defeat than in their previous 15 top-flight meetings (W7 D5).

Espanyol have won just one of their 16 away games against Alavés in LaLiga (D5 L10), 1-0 in November 2016. Their win percentage of 6.2% is their second lowest against an opponent with at least 10 away meetings in the competition (Real Madrid: 4.5% - G89 W4 D14 L71).

Following their 3-2 win at the RCDE Stadium in September 2024, Espanyol can achieve the double over Deportivo Alavés in the same LaLiga season for only the second time in history, having previously achieved it in 2016/17.        

Alavés have won just one of their last 12 LaLiga games (D6 L5), 3-1 against Real Betis last January, and have not won at home since November (G5 D3 L2): 1-0 against Mallorca.

Espanyol have not won any of their last 12 away games in LaLiga (D3 L9), since a 3-1 win at Rayo Vallecano in May 2023 - they have not won any of their first 11 away games this campaign, while the last time they had a longer wait for their first away win in a top-flight season was in 1988/89 (won their 14th away match).
