Barcelona have not lost any of their last 14 matches against Alavés in LaLiga (W12 D2), their best unbeaten run against them in the competition.
Alavés have won just two of their 18 away games against Barcelona in LaLiga (D2 L14): 1-0 in February 2000, the only time they kept a clean sheet in the competition at Barça’s venue, and 2-1 in September 2016.
FC Barcelona have scored in each of their last 64 home games against Basque opponents in LaLiga (176 goals; 2.7 per game), last failing to do so in February 2000, precisely against Alavés (0-1).
Barcelona are coming off a 7-1 home win over Valencia in LaLiga, but have not won back-to-back home games in the competition since November last year (11 straight wins).
Alavés have not lost any of their last three away games in LaLiga (W1 D2), having lost on each of their previous six trips in the competition.
