Espanyol to Win
While both Espanyol and Alaves are still waiting for their first win of the season, Espanyol at least drew three times so far, while Alaves lost all four of their matches this season. With that in mind, and taking into account the fact that Espanyol beat Alaves in two of the last three games in which they were hosts, our prediction for this match is for Espanyol to win the game.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
Three of the previous five matches played between Espanyol and Alaves have gone under 2.5 total goals, so we wouldn't be surprised if we witness another low-scoring game in their upcoming match. In addition to this, Espanyol averaged 1.6 goals per game so far in the league. However, Alaves averaged 2.75 goals per game, although most of those were goals that they conceded.
Both Teams to Score – No
Both teams have failed to score in three of the last five head-to-head duels between Espanyol and Alaves and we don't see both teams scoring in this game either. And if you are more interested in betting in higher odds, you should try betting on Espanyol to win to nil since we don't expect Alaves to score in this game.

Espanyol vs Alaves preview: Both teams looking for their first win of the season
It's been rough going for Espanyol so far upon their return to La Liga and the team is still waiting for their first win. After the first five rounds, Espanyol has three draws and two losses, sitting just barely above the relegation zone in the standings. However, the team will have a great chance to get their first win against Alaves, who is on a four-game losing streak. Herrera, Puado, and Vidal are injured at the moment and out of the upcoming match.
After struggling last season and avoiding relegation by four points, Alaves seems destined for another similarly stressful season. The team has lost all four matches at the beginning of the new season and they are the only team along Getafe still without points. So, a match against Espanyol could prove to be a very important one for them, both for points and to improve the team's confidence. Lopez, Mednez, and Pons will miss this game due to injuries.
