Valencia vs Alaves Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips
Valencia vs Alaves Preview
- Tournament – La Liga
- Date – Sunday, May 5, 2024
- Kick-off Time – 04:30 pm GMT
- Venue – Mestalla Stadium
A mid-table battle in La Liga will see Valencia host Deportivo Alaves on Sunday.
Valencia are currently eighth in the table and sits four points behind sixth-placed Athletic Bilbao. With just five games to go, they still have an outside chance of qualifying for the UEFA Europa Conference League.
However, they have lost their last two games in a row, which has certainly been a big blow to their European hopes. Alaves, meanwhile, are 12th in the La Liga standings, five points behind 10th-placed Getafe.
Alaves have won their last two games, having lost their previous three. It will be an interesting game, given their recent forms and quite contrasting with each other.

Valencia vs Alaves Prediction
![Alaves vs Valencia Prediction Valencia vs Alaves](https://cms.sportsdunia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Alaves-Valencia-1024x538.webp)
Valencia have lost two of their last five games with both of them coming in their last two games. They lost 4-2 against Barcelona despite being 2-1 up after Giorgi Mamardashvili was sent off.
Alaves, meanwhile, beat Atletico Madrid 2-0 before beating Celta Vigo 3-0 in their last two games, both at home.
It should be a tight game, with both sides putting in decent performances recently regardless of their contrasting results. Valencia should be able to edge it though, with their home advantage.
