Deportivo Alaves vs Real Madrid CF Prediction 13 April 2025
Added on 11 April, 2025
Next Sunday, Alaves and Real Madrid will go head-to-head on Matchday 31 of La Liga in a clash that holds very different stakes for each side.
Alaves are fighting to stay in the top flight and currently sit in 17th place with 30 points and a goal difference of 33:44. Despite their precarious position, the team has shown resilience lately, suffering just one defeat in their last five matches—a 0:2 loss to Rayo Vallecano. Their other recent results include a 1:1 draw with Mallorca, narrow victories over Villarreal (1:0) and Girona (1:0), and a competitive 2:2 draw with Las Palmas.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid have had a mixed run of form during the same period. Losses to Betis (1:2) and Valencia (1:2) have somewhat stalled their title defense, despite wins over Rayo Vallecano (2:1), Villarreal (2:1), and Leganes (3:2). This inconsistency has seen Los Blancos slip to second place in the table with 63 points and a goal difference of 63:31.
With their attention currently split due to Champions League commitments, Madrid may not approach this fixture with peak intensity. That could open the door for Alaves, who will be highly motivated to earn valuable points in their survival bid. Given the context and momentum, a positive result for the home side shouldn't be ruled out.
