Deportivo Alavés vs Villarreal Preview

Deportivo Alavés sit top of La Liga after a commanding 3-0 victory over Getafe on the opening day, keeping a clean sheet in the process. That result has set the tone at Mendizorroza, where the Basque side look well organised and full of confidence. Striker Lucas Boyé is fit again after recovering from a muscular issue, while defender Nicolas Valentini is now available for selection following a suspension carried over from Serie A.

Villarreal, placed fifth, began their campaign with a 2-2 draw away at Racing Santander, a result that highlighted defensive vulnerabilities. The Yellow Submarine will be eager to claim a first win, yet Mendizorroza presents a stern test. Villarreal have failed to win at this ground since the 2019/20 season, suffering three defeats and one draw in subsequent visits. Reports linking defender Willy Kambwala with a move to Como could further unsettle their backline.

Alavés opened their campaign with a ruthless 3-0 dismantling of Getafe, conceding nothing and establishing themselves at the summit of La Liga. That defensive solidity at Mendizorroza is central to the 1X selection here. With Nicolas Valentini now available and Lucas Boyé fit again, the hosts carry both resilience and attacking threat into this fixture.

Villarreal, by contrast, could only manage a 2-2 draw at Racing Santander, surrendering a lead and exposing vulnerabilities at the back. The potential departure of defender Willy Kambwala to Como adds further uncertainty to their rearguard. Travelling to Mendizorroza in such circumstances is far from ideal for a side still searching for rhythm.

The venue factor strengthens this pick considerably. Villarreal have failed to win at Mendizorroza since the 2019/20 season, suffering three defeats and a draw across their last four visits. Backing the double chance covering a home win or draw, supported by the home odds at 3.20, reflects where the value lies. Alavés have the form, the fortress, and the momentum.
