BAR vs ALA Dream11 Match Prediction

BAR vs ALA Dream11: Barcelona will be looking for their first win in three league games when they host Deportivo Alaves at Camp Nou, on Saturday night. The Catalan are leading the charge in La Liga, but find eternal rivals Real Madrid hot on the heels, as only goal difference is keeping Barca away from Madrid at the moment.

Form and recent results:

Barcelona:

La Liga will go into a two-week winter break after this weekend. So Barcelona, as well as, all other teams will look to go into the holiday period with a win in this round.
Barcelona drew the last two games, most notably, a 0-0 stalemate in the last match against Real Madrid. Before that, Ernesto Valverde’s men were held back to a 2-2 draw by Real Sociedad.

Deportivo Alaves:

Alaves are 14th heading into this game, and are without a win in three La Liga games.
Two of those matches ended in defeats, while the last game was a draw against the lowly Leganes. Deportivo must be furious at themselves for last week’s lost opportunity and now brace themselves another tough away trip.
