As a newly
promoted team, Alaves’ performance in La Liga this season has been relatively fine.
In the first 13 rounds of the league, they have achieved three wins, three
draws, and seven losses, accumulating a total of 12 points and currently
sitting in 15th place in the standings. In terms of goal stats, Alaves have
scored 11 goals and conceded 18 so far. Their offense has been relatively weak,
while their defense has shown vulnerabilities, which contributes to their lower
position in the standings. However, looking at their recent performances,
Alaves have shown improvement. In their most recent games, they have achieved
two wins, two draws, and two losses. It is worth noting that their defeats came
against strong teams like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, and both matches were
decided by a one-goal difference. Despite the losses, their performances
against these top teams can be considered commendable and even glorious.
Granada,
another newly promoted team, have struggled to find success. In the first 13
rounds, they have only managed to secure one win, four draws, and eight losses,
accumulating a total of seven points. It places
them second from the bottom in the standings, indicating a challenging start to
the season for them. Granada have scored 18 goals but has conceded 30 so far in
the league. This showcases their defensive vulnerabilities and the challenges
they face in maintaining a solid defensive line. Their open style of play has
contributed to their defensive struggles. Furthermore, Granada have struggled
particularly in their away matches. In the six away games they have played in
the league so far, they have only managed to secure one draw and have suffered
five losses. This highlights their difficulties in performing well away from
home and their overall weaker away performance.
Both Alaves
and Granada are considered evenly matched in terms of overall strength.
However, based on their recent performances, Alaves have clearly outperformed
Granada. When considering the performance gap between the two teams in home and
away matches, Alaves, who enjoy the home advantage, become the team worth
paying attention to.
