Recent Form

CD Alaves' last five matches read 0 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. That is only 1 point out of a possible 15, which suggests the team is struggling both to score and to keep opponents out.

Malaga's last five also show 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. The visitors collected 2 points over the same stretch, one more than Alaves. The gap is small, but both teams are clearly short of a win. There is no strong form advantage on either side; the picture points to two fragile teams.

Goal Expectation and Key Stats

The most interesting aspect of this match is that the attacking and defensive numbers of the two teams pull in opposite directions.

CD Alaves: They score just 0.6 goals per match and concede 1.4. The average total goals per match is 2.0. Both Teams to Score (BTTS) stands at 60% and the Over rate is also 60%. A notable detail is that the highest goal tier has never been reached (0%). In other words, Alaves matches tend to be moderately open, but they do not turn into goal fests. Their low attacking output suggests that goals depend heavily on opposition mistakes and set pieces.

Malaga: They score 1.0 goals per match while conceding 2.2. That defensive average is the weakest figure in this fixture. The average total goals per match rises to 3.2. BTTS is high at 80% and the Over rate is 80%. In the highest goal tier the rate is 40%. These numbers show that Malaga matches are open and goal-heavy.

Takeaway: Putting Alaves' 0.6 attacking average next to the 2.2 goals Malaga concede, the home side's chance of finding the net may exceed their own average. At the same time, Malaga's 1.0 scoring average combined with the 1.4 Alaves concede leaves the road to goal open for the visitors as well. Malaga's high BTTS rate supports a scenario where both sides score, while Alaves' low output pulls the balance down.

Over potential: The Over potential tag in the data sits at a weak/risky level. Malaga's side points to a high-scoring game while Alaves' side limits it. That contradiction is why the goal expectation cannot be tied to a single direction.

iTahmin Verdict

Both teams are out of form and winless. Malaga picked up one more point than Alaves over the last five matches, but conceding 2.2 goals per match is a serious weakness. Alaves' biggest problem is a lack of goals on the pitch; their 0.6 average limits the home advantage. For that reason it is hard to name a clear favorite, and a balanced contest looks like the main expectation.

On goals, Malaga's high BTTS and Over rates keep the chance of an open game alive. Alaves' low scoring average and 0% in the highest goal tier draw a more cautious frame. This mixed picture is why the Over potential reads as weak/risky. It is also worth noting that the match is open to surprise results.
