Alaves will be looking to register their second win in 2025 when they welcome Villarreal to Mendizorroza on Saturday afternoon.
The hosts' run of consecutive La Liga campaigns is in danger of coming to an end. Eduardo Coudet's side currently sit second from bottom and go into Saturday's clash on the back of a six-game winless streak. Los blanquiazules lost just three of those games, but the fact that two of those defeats have come at home is a major cause for concern ahead of this weekend's clash.
Villarreal, meanwhile, want to secure a top four finish for the first time in nine years. The visitors didn't get off to the best of starts in the new year, winning just one of their opening three games. The Yellow Submarine have responded well, going unbeaten in five matches and winning three of their last four.
Alaves vs Villarreal Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
While Alaves have not been in the greatest of forms in recent weeks, with El Glorioso winless in their last six games at Mendizorroza, they are not giving away many goals and I think Villarreal will have a hard time scoring this weekend.
The hosts conceded under one goal in each of their last six games at this ground with as many games ending with fewer than three goals. Villarreal were not also able to score many goals on their recent travels in La Liga. Marcelino García Toral’s side scored under one goal in three of their last four away La Liga games and I expect a similar story this weekend.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Alaves team news
Alaves didn’t suffer any injuries last weekend so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Eduardo Coudet retains most of the side that came from a goal down to draw 1-1.
With his goal in that game, Kike García has now found the back of the net 11 times in La Liga this season and the Spanish professional will reunite upfront with Carlos Martín.
