Sevilla hosts Alavés in La Liga Matchday 12 fixture

Sevilla will face Deportivo Alavés at Estadio Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán on Friday, November 6, 2026, in a La Liga Matchday 12 encounter. The match kicks off at 20:00 local time. Sixth-placed Sevilla (17 points from 11 matches) seek to recover from a 3-1 defeat to Getafe, while 11th-placed Alavés (12 points) arrive in poor form, winless in their last seven La Liga matches and without a league victory on the road this season.

Sevilla's recent record shows five wins, two draws, and four losses. The hosts' attacking options include Isaac Romero (3 goals), Lucas Stassin, and Félix Correia, while midfielders Youssouf Fofana and Lucien Agoumé provide defensive cover. However, Sevilla have defensive vulnerabilities; they have kept clean sheets at home only twice this season and have received four or more cards in four of their last five matches against Alavés. Injuries to Peque Fernández and Miguel Sierra, plus a suspension for Manu Bueno, affect squad availability.

Alavés, managed by Quique Sánchez Flores, have won three matches, lost five, and drawn three. Lucas Boyé leads their attack with five league goals. The visitors' away record this season is particularly concerning—they have failed to claim a single league victory on the road and conceded goals in the vast majority of away fixtures. Injuries to Facundo Garcés and Mikel Rodríguez (both out with ACL injuries until April) further weaken their squad depth.

Historically, Sevilla hold the edge in head-to-head meetings with 22 wins to Alavés' 12 across 46 matches, though recent encounters have been closer, with Alavés winning three of the last six meetings. Sevilla are undefeated in 12 of their last 13 home matches against Alavés in all competitions. Multiple betting analyses suggest the match could produce over 2 goals, citing both teams' attacking intent and defensive vulnerabilities. Expected formations are Sevilla in 4-2-3-1 and Alavés in 4-4-2.
