Atletico Madrid faced off against Alaves in a crucial La Liga encounter as they aimed to secure a spot in the Champions League for the next season. On the other hand, Alaves looked to maintain their position in the top tier of Spanish football.

The match ended in favor of Atletico Madrid with a scoreline of 2-0, showcasing a strong performance from Diego Simeone‘s squad.

Atletico Madrid, while struggling in away matches this season, showcased resilience by winning their last two league games, including an impressive away victory against Villarreal. This victory trend propelled them to secure a win against Alaves.

When analyzing the head-to-head record, Atletico Madrid’s dominance over Alaves was evident. With only one loss in the last 10 encounters, including eight wins, Atletico Madrid maintained an average of two goals per game while conceding just 0.6 goals against Alaves.

Contrastingly, Alaves struggled to find form, having only one win in their last nine matches and entering the game against Atletico on a three-match losing streak. These factors made the odds favoring an Atletico Madrid victory very appealing.

Despite Alaves’ matches in La Liga averaging around 2.06 goals per game, indicating a relatively low-scoring trend, Atletico Madrid managed to secure a 2-0 victory. This victory further solidified their position as a strong contender in the league.

One of the key highlights of the match was Angel Correa‘s performance. The Atletico Madrid forward, who scored in the recent defeat against Borussia Dortmund, displayed his prowess by securing a goal in the Alaves clash. With eight La Liga goals this season, Correa proved to be a valuable asset for Diego Simeone’s team.

Lastly, Atletico Madrid’s dominance extended to the corner kicks, as they managed to secure more corners than Alaves during the match. This aspect of their performance further highlighted Atletico’s control and strategic play on the field.
