Real Madrid
Deportivo AlavesMadrid's technical superiority and attacking consistency should produce multiple goals against a side defending in numbers, whilst Alaves's attacking ambition in moments of transition, combined with Madrid's solid but not immaculate defensive record, makes a both-teams-to-score outcome probable. The fixture has the hallmarks of a one-sided encounter where the second-placed side's quality eventually overwhelms their opponents across the full match.

Real Madrid to win
Real Madrid sit second in La Liga with 65 goals scored this season, demonstrating both attacking quality and the kind of technical intelligence required to break down deep defensive blocks. Deportivo Alaves are seventeenth in the table, 17 points behind Madrid, and their survival-focused approach at the Bernabéu will leave them vulnerable to a side that has consistently found ways past stubborn defences.
Over 2.5 Goals
Madrid's 65-goal tally across the season reflects a squad capable of manufacturing chances against compact opposition, and the article emphasises their understanding of timing, movement, and final-third intelligence as the foundations of that prolific output. Alaves have conceded 46 goals this season and, despite their defensive structure, will struggle to contain Madrid's technical approach for a full 90 minutes.
Both Teams to Score - Yes
Alaves have scored 35 goals across the campaign and, despite their precarious league position, possess moments of individual quality that will trouble Madrid's defence, which has conceded 29 goals this season. The contrast in approach—Madrid's attacking ambition against Alaves's survival mentality and willingness to attack on the counter—typically produces open play where both sides create opportunities.
