Alaves, who missed the direct promotion last season, secured La Liga this season through playoffs. Despite their success, they are currently 15th, five points behind Granada and in the relegation zone. They may be involved in the relegation battle this season, but are focusing on staying away from the danger zone.

Granada, a team that finished first in La Liga 2 last season, has been in a similar position to Alaves in recent seasons. However, this season is not going as planned for Nazaríes, who are currently in 19th place with seven points, two away from the safe zone, and one game more than Mallorca and Cadiz.

Aleksandar Sedlar, a central defender, will be out for a long time due to an ACL injury. Rafa Marin, a Real Madrid loanee, is likely to start at the back. Giuliano Simeone will miss the game with a broken leg.

Bryan Zaragoza, a key player for Granada, is suspended for the Alaves game due to injury. He has scored five goals and assisted two, contributing 39% of the team’s goals. Injured players Raul Fernandez, Miguel Rubio, and Jesus Vallejo are also expected to be sidelined. Coach Paco López is potentially sacked if Granada fails to secure a positive result.

Goalkeeper: Antonio Sivera
Defenders: Andoni Gorosabel, Abdelkebir Abqar, Rafa Marin, Ruben Duarte
