Alaves lost 1-0 on the road the last match-day, against Bilbao. They had also lost seven of their former eight games, and they have a 100% losing record on the road in 2021-22, disregarding a single win.
On the other hand, their counterparts Betis lost 2-0 on the road the past game week, against Villarreal. But that was their only loss in a very long while.
Also, they have lost just twice this whole season in all competitions – once against Europa League champions Villarreal, and once against Real Madrid.
Going on, they had scored two or more goals in six of the preceding seven games, and they had remained invincible in 17 of their previous 20 road trips.
Furthermore, the two teams just above them in the table – Valencia, and Barcelona are pitted against each other this game week, and it’s an opportunity to climb upwards in standings. Note that they need a surplus of just one point to get into a European spot.



译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

阿尔维斯在最后一个比赛日客场0 - 1输给了毕尔巴鄂。在之前的8场比赛中，他们输掉了7场，在2021-22赛季，他们的客场战绩是100%的失败，这还不算一场胜利。
另一方面，他们的对手贝蒂斯在上个星期的客场比赛中以0 - 2输给比利亚雷亚尔。但这是他们在很长一段时间里唯一的损失。
此外，他们在整个赛季的所有比赛中只输过两次——一次是对欧罗巴联赛冠军比利亚雷亚尔，一次是对皇家马德里。
在之前的7场比赛中，他们有6场进了2个或更多的球，在之前的20场客场比赛中，他们有17场保持不败。
此外，排名在他们之上的两支球队瓦伦西亚和巴塞罗那将在本周的比赛中对决，这是一个提升排名的机会。需要注意的是，他们只需要一个百分点的盈余，就能达到欧洲的水平。
