Deportivo Alavés Recent Form
| Match | Date | Competition | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Real Racing Club vs Deportivo Alavés | 2026-08-07 | Pre-season | 7-8 |
| Deportivo Alavés vs CD Castellón | 2026-07-31 | Pre-season | 3-0 |
| Girona FC vs Deportivo Alavés | 2026-07-25 | Pre-season | 0-1 |
| Deportivo Alavés vs Eibar | 2026-07-18 | Pre-season | 1-1 |
| Deportivo Alavés vs Rayo Vallecano | 2026-05-23 | LaLiga | 1-2 |
Alavés ended last season with a 1-2 home defeat to Rayo Vallecano, but their pre-season results have been encouraging. A 3-0 win over Castellón and a 1-0 victory at Girona suggest the attacking unit is functioning well. The extraordinary 8-7 penalty shootout result against Racing suggests preparation is ongoing, but the overall pre-season picture has been positive. Under their 3-5-2 formation, Alavés have looked comfortable creating chances, with Toni Martínez and Aitor Mañas as the two forwards.
Getafe Recent Form
| Match | Date | Competition | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tottenham Hotspur vs Getafe | 2026-08-08 | Pre-season | 1-1 |
| AS Monaco vs Getafe | 2026-08-06 | Pre-season | 1-0 |
| Atlético Madrid vs Getafe | 2026-07-29 | Pre-season | 4-1 |
| Real Valladolid vs Getafe | 2026-07-25 | Pre-season | 0-0 |
| CD Tenerife vs Getafe | 2026-07-22 | Pre-season | 1-2 |
Getafe’s pre-season has been mixed. A 4-1 loss to Atlético Madrid was followed by a draw with Valladolid, a win at Tenerife, then a loss to Monaco before a draw at Tottenham. The 3-4-2-1 shape deployed by Getafe in this match has Martín Satriano as the focal point, supported by Andrés García and Mario Martín in the attacking midfield positions. The defensive record across this pre-season period is a concern, having conceded in four of five outings.

| Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe | 2026-02-08 | LaLiga | 0-2 |

Four meetings from the last two LaLiga seasons. Getafe have won three and drawn one, with zero losses. More notably, Alavés have failed to score in three of those four meetings, netting just once across the entire sample. The 0-2 defeat at home in February 2026 is the most recent and the most relevant. That result means Getafe have now won at Alavés’ ground in the last two attempts.

Key Factors to Consider
The head-to-head record and the defensive patterns on both sides are the most informative data points for this fixture.
- Getafe are unbeaten in all four recent meetings against Alavés, winning three and drawing one.
- Alavés have scored just once in four head-to-head meetings, suggesting significant difficulty breaking down Getafe’s defensive shape.
- Getafe won at Alavés’ ground in both of the last two seasons; home advantage has not favoured the hosts in this fixture.
- Alavés’ pre-season featured high-scoring games but also defensive fragility, conceding seven in one match against Racing.
- Getafe conceded in four of five pre-season matches, raising questions about their defensive readiness for the new season.
- Both squads have been largely retained from last season, meaning familiar tactical patterns are likely to persist rather than change.
Free Tips on Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe
- Consider Getafe or Draw (Double Chance) if Getafe’s odds are short, given the unbeaten run of four meetings without defeat.
- Factor in Under 2.5 goals as a viable market; three of the four recent head-to-head meetings produced fewer than three goals in total.
- Note that Alavés have failed to score in three of the four most recent meetings against Getafe, making the “Getafe to Keep a Clean Sheet” or “Under 0.5 Home Goals” options worth considering.
- As the head-to-head record showed, Getafe have scored in three of four meetings against Alavés; their attacking output in this specific fixture is more reliable than their general pre-season form suggests.
- Examine the first-half market; Getafe are a side known for disciplined starts and their goals in this fixture have often come in the second half as Alavés opened up.

Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe Football Prediction 2026
The Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe prediction 2026 is shaped primarily by a head-to-head record that favours the visitors to a notable degree. Three wins and a draw from four meetings, zero Alavés victories, one Alavés goal across the sample. The Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe match prediction today has to account for the home advantage, but the data from recent encounters suggests this advantage has been irrelevant in this particular fixture. Alavés lost 0-2 at home to Getafe as recently as February 2026, and the season before that also produced a 0-1 home defeat.
Admittedly, the opening day of a new season introduces uncertainty that does not exist in mid-campaign fixtures. Both sides have played pre-season only, and the competitive form sample from last season is several months old. But the squad compositions are familiar, the tactical identities are unchanged, and the Deportivo Alavés vs Getafe odds are likely to reflect Getafe as the marginal favourites given the consistent head-to-head pattern. The logical pick is a Getafe win or low-scoring draw, with Alavés unlikely to score given their three goalless home performances in this exact fixture.
