Barcelona vs Alaves Prediction - La Liga

Match context

At 10:15 PM on November 29, 2025, Barcelona will host Alaves at the Spotify Camp Nou in a La Liga match. This game is crucial for both teams, as Barcelona are striving to catch up to the top of the table, while Alaves need points to secure their safe position in the lower half of the standings.

Currently, Barcelona are in second place with 31 points, demonstrating superior strength, especially when playing at home. Conversely, Alaves are in 14th place with 15 points and face a huge challenge as they travel to Camp Nou.

Performance analysis

Barcelona: A formidable home force.

Barcelona are in excellent form, having won 4 of their last 5 La Liga matches. Their strength is further demonstrated at their home ground, Camp Nou, where they have won all 6 matches played since the start of the season. The home team's attack is performing effectively, scoring a total of 36 goals in 13 matches, averaging 2.8 goals per game. However, their defense needs improvement, having conceded 15 goals.

Alaves: A challenge away from home.

On the other hand, Alaves has shown an inconsistent performance. In their last 5 matches, they have only managed 1 win, 1 draw, and suffered 3 defeats. Alaves' away record is also alarming, with only 1 win, 1 draw, and 4 losses. Their attack is their biggest weakness, with only 11 goals after 13 rounds, one of the worst records in the league.

History of confrontations

The head-to-head history shows Barcelona's absolute dominance. The Camp Nou team has won all five of their most recent encounters with Alaves. This demonstrates that Alaves is a favored opponent for the Catalan giants.

Force information

Barcelona enter this match with significant personnel losses. They will be without key players such as R. Araujo (illness), Gavi (knee injury), and goalkeeper M. ter Stegen (back injury). These absences could affect the solidity of their defense and their ability to control the midfield.

On Alaves' side, they will be without F. Garces due to suspension, while Calebe's availability remains uncertain due to injury.

Analysis and predictions

Despite facing numerous injuries, Barcelona are still considered far superior to Alaves. Home advantage, superior attacking power, and an overwhelming head-to-head record provide a solid foundation for a victory at the Spotify Camp Nou. Alaves, with their poor away form and lackluster attack, are predicted to have a very difficult match.
