Key Prediction Insights

Alavés are marginally favoured at Mendizorroza, with a 53.0% probability of a home win against an Osasuna side given a 24.0% chance, leaving the draw at 23.0%. The model leans towards a tight Alavés victory and an under 2.5 goals prediction (46.0% for over 2.5, so a slight edge to the under), in a clash between 16th-placed Alavés on 31 points and 10th-placed Osasuna on 37.

Match Analysis

Alavés come into this needing points to steer clear of the bottom three, and their last three games have been chaotic but competitive: a 4-3 away win at Celta, a 1-1 home draw with third-placed Villarreal, and a narrow 3-2 loss at Valencia. They’ve shown they can trade blows with better sides, but that seven-goal thriller at Balaídos and the defeat at Mestalla underline how vulnerable they can be without the ball. Across their last five, they’re averaging 1.2 goals scored and 1.4 conceded, with 0 clean sheets, and their xG numbers (1.736 for, 1.946 against) suggest they’re allowing slightly better chances than they’re creating. Osasuna arrive in safer mid-table waters but with similarly mixed recent form: a controlled 1-0 home win over Girona, a 3-1 defeat at Sociedad, and a 2-2 draw against Mallorca in Pamplona. They’ve been the more stable side defensively, conceding 1.2 per game over their last five with one clean sheet, but the advanced data is a warning sign: they generate only 0.812 xG on average while conceding 1.852. That points to a team living a little dangerously, allowing opponents enough chances to make games uncomfortable if they’re not sharp.

Under/Over 2.5 Goals Prediction

The model leans slightly towards under 2.5 in this one, despite a 46.0% probability on over 2.5, so the under 2.5 prediction is built on a view of a cagey, low-scoring battle. Alavés have seen 2 of their last 3 matches go over 2.5 goals (4-3 at Celta, 2-3 at Valencia) and one under (1-1 vs Villarreal), while Osasuna have had 2 of 3 finish under (1-0 vs Girona, 1-3 at Sociedad was over, 2-2 vs Mallorca over as well). With both teams averaging just 1.2 goals scored, and each conceding around 1.2–1.4, plus relatively modest xG figures, a narrow scoreline fits the data even if recent scorelines have occasionally exploded.

Corners Prediction

Corners Probability Distribution

Distribution
Probability of each corner count outcome
Cumulative Probability (CDF)
Probability of corners ≤ X
The predicted corners total is 9.16, pointing towards a fairly standard La Liga game rather than a barrage from wide areas. Alavés’ last three have produced corner totals of 5, 7 and 12 (they’ve often been out-cornered, especially 2-10 at Valencia), which fits the idea of a side spending long spells without the ball. Osasuna, by contrast, have racked up 6, 5 and 8 corners themselves in their last three, regularly forcing opponents back. That balance supports a corners prediction in line with the 9.16 expected corners: Osasuna’s steady attacking play should push the total up, but not to extreme levels.

Shots Prediction

Shots Probability Distribution

Distribution
Probability of each shot count outcome
Cumulative Probability (CDF)
Probability of shots ≤ X
The expected shots figure is 24.59, suggesting a game with a decent but not frantic shooting volume. Alavés’ matches have recently seen 26 shots at Celta, 18 against Villarreal and 29 at Valencia, indicating they’re involved in open contests where both teams create. Osasuna’s last three produced 24 shots vs Girona, 27 at Sociedad and 30 against Mallorca, showing a similar pattern. Combined with their xG profiles – both sides creating around a goal’s worth of chances per game – this shots prediction feels appropriate for a match where the quality of finishing, rather than sheer volume, will decide it.

Final Prediction

Alavés’ edge comes from home advantage and a slightly higher attacking xG profile, even if their defensive record is a concern. Osasuna’s underlying numbers hint at a team allowing too much while not creating enough, which may tilt the balance towards the hosts. The key factor to watch will be which midfield asserts control early; if Alavés can pin Osasuna back and turn territory into chances, their slight statistical edge should translate into three vital points.
