a combination of recent form, the overwhelming advantage of historical head-to-head and the odds data that are extremely supportive of home wins, it is very likely that Atletico Madrid will take all three points at home in this game. It is expected that Atletico Madrid will dominate the course of the game, and Alaves may not be able to make a difference.
