Alaves had a stable five years in LaLiga before they had a disastrous last season when they were last on the table. As a new team in the second level of Spanish football, Alaves were certainly one of the candidates to win promotion. In the regular part of the season, they stayed one point short of automatic promotion, but Alaves will have another chance through the playoffs.
On the other hand, Eibar most of the previous decade also spent in the best national competition, but in the 2020/21 season, they were relegated. The same as Alaves, Eibar stayed one point short of direct promotion in the current season. The playoffs are always tricky, but that is the only way for Gaizka Garitano's team to progress to LaLiga.
Alaves vs Eibar pick: Under 2.5 goals
The game on Thursday will be the second leg of the playoff semifinal. In the first game, the teams drew 1-1. Eibar were much closer to winning, but Alaves again showed exceptional defense.
Both these teams are usually low-scoring. Alaves went under 2.5 goals in five of the last six matches. Their opponent, Eibar, went under 2.5 goals in six of the previous seven games.
We should expect a similar outcome on Thursday night. Both these teams are well-organized, tactically brilliant teams, so under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Alaves team news
Nikola Maras is the only Alaves player that is unavailable for the game on Thursday against Eibar.
Maras is one of the most reliable players of Alaves, but he has had a meniscus injury since March, so they have already solved his absence.
As for the other players, they will be ready and eager to make it to the promotion final.
We should expect Alaves to play with the same starting lineup as in the previous game against Eibar.

Eibar team news
Eibar have problems with missing players in defense. For the game on Thursday, Eibar's head coach Gaizka Garitano have only three defenders available.
Anaitz Arbilla, Imanol Garcia de Albeniz, Frederico Venancio, Rober Correa, Daniel Lasure, and Jose Rios Reina are unavailable to play, so they will probably deploy midfielder Sergio Alvarez to the center-back position.
Luca Zidane appeared in 31 regular season matches. He conceded only 25 goals while keeping an amazing 14 clean sheets.
