What is the form of Barcelona compared to Deportivo Alaves?
Barcelona remain top of the table but the Spanish giants have failed to win their last two games now, drawing 2-2 against Real Sociedad and 0-0 against Real Madrid. That Clasico game was a disappointing performance for the Blaugrana for the most part, but it still means they are 10 games unbeaten in all competitions (W7, D3).
As for Deportivo Alaves, they are winless in their last four games. Stretch this to their last nine games and Barca’s opponents have won only twice (D2, L5).
Barcelona vs Deportivo Alaves head-to-head record
Deportivo Alaves have won at Camp Nou before. They surprised the Catalan giants back in 2016, beating them 2-1 in Catalonia. Despite this, the head-to-head record backs the Blaugrana as that was the only time they have lost in this fixture.

Team news
The biggest news after El Clasico was the issue with Sergio Busquets. The Barcelona midfield maestro was a late omission from the lineup due to a fitness issue and his presence was missed as the club struggled with their build-up play.
However, Sergio should be back for Saturday’s game. Nelson Semedo started against Real Madrid and is expected to retain his position while it will be a fight between Umtiti and Lenglet over who will partner Pique in the back-four.
The away side should welcome back Laguardia and Wakaso from suspension and both are expected to slot right back into the starting lineup. Former Barcelona player Aleix Vidal is also tipped to start while Lucas Perez should spearhead the attack.
