- Venue: Ciudad Deportiva (Villarreal)
Last season, Villarreal B managed to secure a return to the second tier of Spanish football for the first time in nine years by winning second place. Their primary goal is to keep their place in the Segunda Division as long as possible, and judging by the current results, they should have no problems about survival. After 29 games played, Mini Submarine is currently sitting on a respectable 12th position with 37 points, which is eight more than Ponferradine, which is the first under the line.
After several very decent campaigns in the top tier of Spanish football, Deportivo Alaves removed the label of LaLiga last season after six years, finishing at the very bottom of the table. Of course, the number one goal for the Basque club will be an express return among the best teams in Spain, and as things currently stand, their task is flowing according to plan and goes towards fulfilment. The Babazorros are currently in third place with 53 points, just four behind Las Palmas, who currently hold the leading position, but with a game more.
Villarreal B vs Alaves Betting Tips: Team2 to Win
The Blue and Whites from the Basque Country justified the role of favorites and hosts in the first clash of the season and completely deservedly reached all three points, in a routine 3-0 triumph over Villarreal B. Alaves will, without a doubt, want to prove their worth this time as well and continue the race for the championship title that brings placement in the elite.
We are convinced that Alaves' motivation will be at the highest possible level, since they will have an ideal opportunity to melt away the minus of four points and get close to only one point from the current leader. Las Palmas did not manage to turn their numerical advantage into a victory, so with a 0-0 draw with FC Andorra they further complicated the leading position.
After all, The Blue and Whites are bursting with confidence before visiting "Cuidad Deportiva" and it is really difficult to stop them at this moment. After being eliminated from the Copa del Rey by Sevilla (1-2), the squad from "Mendizorrotza" built six games without defeat, five of which ended in their favor.
Not only have the Basque club found a championship rhythm, but their attacking zone looks relentless and by far the best in Segunda in recent weeks. The fact that Luis Garcia's team scored at least three goals in four of the last six league games is the best proof that they shake the nets of their rivals until they are exhausted.
Their rival, the second team Villarreal, is calm in the table, but is totally out of form lately. In the previous four games in Segunda, they experienced as many as three defeats, conceding 2+ goals in each of them. With such form of rival, Alaves should not miss the golden chance and take all three points home from this visit.

Meanwhile, Abdelkebir Abqar earned his fifth yellow card this season for the second time in the last round against Cartagena. This means that he will be suspended for one match and miss the clash with Villarreal B.
Head coach Luis Garcia, apart from the 23-year-old Moroccan, will have all the key players at his disposal. Since his team is in phenomenal form, no big changes are expected in the starting XI.
