Game Preview

Key Players
Deportivo Alavés
- Asier Villalibre: A key player, he’s finding the net more often than tourists find their way into tapas bars. His finishing is so smooth, he could probably slice jamón with his feet!
- Antonio Blanco: The midfield maestro has been pulling strings like a master puppeteer. His passing is so precise, he could thread a needle while running with the bulls in Pamplona.
Sevilla
- Suso: The ex-Milan forward can be so clinical in front of goal, he could probably score with a churro if given the chance.
- Jesús Navas: The veteran winger has been Sevilla’s creative spark. His crosses are so accurate, he could deliver a paella to a specific balcony in the Barrio Santa Cruz!
Prediction
Our crystal ball is about as reliable as Spanish punctuality, but if we had to guess, it’s going to be tighter than skinny jeans on a Sevillian fashionista. Expect a match filled with more twists and turns than a flamenco dancer’s hips!
Totally Scientific Prediction: Deportivo Alavés 1 – 2 Sevilla (Because sometimes, the away team brings better jamón to share after the match!)
Match Details
- Venue: Estadio Mendizorroza, Vitoria-Gasteiz (Where dreams are made and siestas are mandatory)
- Kick-off Time: 21:00 local time (Or whenever both teams finish their pre-match tapas)

So grab your fan, don your most colorful team scarf, and get ready for 90 minutes of action that’ll be more entertaining than watching tourists attempt to run with the bulls!
Remember, in La Liga, as in life, it’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how passionately you can argue about it over late-night tapas!
