Match Preview

Alaves are operating in their fifth straight season at this level of football, but they finished 16th last term, just three points outside of the relegation zone after struggling for consistency. Los Babazorros have already lost four times in Spain's top flight this season but two wins and one draw have brought them seven points, which is enough for 15th in the table at this stage. Pablo Machin's side will also enter this weekend's contest in good form considering that they have won two of their last three in the league, including a 2-0 success away to Real Valladolid last weekend. Alaves have lost each of their last seven La Liga games with Barca, though, including a 5-0 defeat in the corresponding match last season. The Catalan giants actually scored nine times during their two meetings in 2019-20 and will be the heavy favourites to pick up another three points on Saturday. Barca are currently sitting down in 12th position in the table, having picked up seven points from their first five matches of the season. They are already seven points off the top of the division but have two games in hand on early league leaders Real Sociedad. Koeman's team have lost their last two in the league, going down 1-0 at Getafe on October 17 before suffering a 3-1 home defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico last weekend. The Catalan side were also held to a 1-1 draw by Sevilla on October 4, meaning that they have not actually been victorious in the league since a 3-0 success at Celta Vigo on October 1. Barca have started their Champions League campaign in impressive fashion, however, thumping Ferencvaros 5-1 last week before recording a 2-0 victory away to Juventus on Wednesday night. It is absolutely vital that Koeman's side return to winning ways in the league, though, ahead of their third European fixture of the campaign at home to Dynamo Kiev next week.
