Villarreal at Alavés



Both sides have found form recently, each winning three of their last five, setting up a game we view as a coin flip. Villarreal sit ninth in the table on 2 points; Alavés occupy fourth on 4 points. That gap tells the story of where each club stands in the hunt, and it means Alavés come in with more to protect.
The books’ price on this one, with the vig taken out, so the three outcomes add to 100.
Where each club sits going in, with the rows either side. Points per game matters more than raw points this far into a season, the schedule is rarely even.
Each club's XI from its most recent match, not a team sheet. The real ones post about an hour before kickoff, and sides rotate.
