Matchday 13 of La Liga between Alaves and Celta will take place on November 22 at the Mendizorrotza Stadium in Vitoria-Gasteiz. Alaves vs. Celta: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Alaves
The team continues to alternate between different match outcomes, but after the last round of La Liga, they have more defeats than victories again. Before the break, Alaves narrowly lost to Girona (0-1), marking their second defeat in the last three La Liga matches. Over the last eight league games, Eduardo Coudet's side has only won twice. Due to this inconsistency, the Basques remain in the middle of the table, although they are just three points away from the European competition zone. Alaves continues to show modest attacking results, but they have conceded and scored 11 goals each after 12 rounds of La Liga. In terms of defensive reliability, only Real Madrid and Villarreal, who have conceded 10 goals each, are ahead of the Basques.
- The team has not lost in 9 of their last 10 home league matches (5 wins, 4 draws).
- Alaves has not conceded more than one goal in 7 consecutive La Liga matches.
- A maximum of 2 goals have been scored in 18 of the last 22 Basque games in La Liga.
Predicted lineup for Alaves (4-4-2)
Antonio Sivera – Victor Parada, Nahuel Tenaglia, Joni, Youssef Enriques – Antonio Blanco, Calebe, Denis Suarez, Carles Alena – Mariano Diaz, Toni Martinez.
The suspension of key forward Lucas Boye has ended.
Celta
Not long ago, the Galicians secured two consecutive victories in La Liga for the first time since May, but in the last round, they failed to take points from Barcelona (2-4). That match ended Celta's four-game unbeaten run in the league (2 wins, 2 draws). Overall, this defeat was only their third in the current La Liga season, but they have even fewer wins. Due to several draws in the first part of the season, Claudio Giraldez's side sits in 13th place in the table, three points above the relegation zone. Notably, Celta has consistently scored in 11 La Liga matches, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 14 consecutive games.
- The Galicians' away scoring streak in the Spanish league spans 16 matches.
- The club has not lost in 6 of their last 7 away matches in La Liga (4 wins, 2 draws).
- At least 3 goals have been scored in 7 of Celta's last 10 away games in La Liga.
Predicted lineup for Celta (3-4-3)
Andrei Radu – Carl Starfelt, Manu Fernandez, Marcos Alonso – Sergio Carreira, Hugo Sotelo, Ilaix Moriba, Oscar Mingueza – Pablo Duran, Borja Iglesias, Ferran Jutgla.
The participation of defender Carlos Dominguez and midfielder Hugo Alvarez is in doubt.

Match Prediction: Alaves vs. Celta
This matchup features two inconsistent and tenacious teams from the middle of the table. Alaves is traditionally dangerous at home, where Eduardo Coudet's side almost never loses and rarely fails to score. However, despite being one of the most reliable clubs in La Liga, the Basques do not always keep a clean sheet, as both teams have scored in 6 of Alaves' last 7 home matches in this tournament.
For Celta, exchanging goals has become almost a routine in every game. With an 11-match scoring streak in La Liga, the club has consistently conceded in 14 consecutive matches. On the road, the Galicians have scored in 16 league matches, but only 2 of those 16 games have ended with clean sheets. It is worth noting that both teams have scored in 5 of the last 7 head-to-head meetings between Alaves and Celta in La Liga.
The prediction suggests: Both teams to score – Yes
