Sevilla 5/6 to beat Alaves in Tuesday’s La Liga showdown

Posted January 18th, 2021 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: La Liga

Market: Sevilla win

Odds: 5/6 @ 888sport

With a chance to break into the European spots in midweek, Sevilla will make the trip to a struggling Alaves on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, crashing out of the Copa del Rey in hugely worrying fashion over the weekend, Alaves are a side in the midst of a real blip. In their 18 La Liga matchups so far this season, they have recorded four wins, six draws and eight defeats, scoring 16 and conceding 23 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of just 18 and opening the midweek fixtures sat down in 16th, they also hold just a two-point buffer from dropping back into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, hit with a woeful 5-0 drumming away at lower-league Almeria last time out, Alaves have lost three of their last four matchups across all formats. More concerning for Tuesday’s hosts, they have recorded just a pair of wins in their last 11 La Liga fixtures, a run that stems back to the end of October.

As for the visitors, making an immediate return to winning ways on Copa del Rey duties over the weekend, Sevilla have continued on a largely impressive purple patch. In their 17 La Liga matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, three draws and five defeats, scoring 21 and conceding just 15 in return. Opening the midweek fixtures with a points tally of 30 and with just their goal difference keeping them outside the European spots, it should also be noted that Sevilla hold the second-best defensive record in the division. As for their recent run of results, collecting a 1-0 win against Segunda outfit Leganes over the weekend, Tuesday’s guests have lost just one of their last 11 matchups across all formats, a run that stems back to December 5th. Smelling a golden chance in midweek, we’re backing an away victory for the European chasers in midweek.
