Alavés Repeats Their Consistent Performance
Alavés faced another defeat at Estadio de la Cerámica, continuing their alarming downward trend in La Liga. They have managed to secure only four points from the last 24 available. What once felt hopeful has now turned to concern among fans and players alike.
Match Performance Against Villarreal
The team started the match against Villarreal with promise. They performed well in the first half, creating numerous scoring opportunities. However, they failed to convert these chances into goals.
Statistics
- 16 shots on target against Villarreal
- Only 4 points earned from last 24
Despite these efforts, Villarreal quickly asserted their dominance after halftime. Alavés struggled to cope, leading to yet another disappointing outcome.
Challenges Faced by Alavés
Alavés has been impacted by various challenges in recent weeks. Coach Eduardo Coudet had only 16 players available from the first team due to injuries and other issues. This limited squad depth has contributed to their poor performance.
Coaching Concerns
Coudet is increasingly under scrutiny as the team’s struggles continue. He is aware of the shortcomings in his squad, especially the lack of effective finishing, which has plagued their matches.
Need for Change
Alavés must find a turning point soon if they want to avoid relegation concerns. The team has lost its earlier solid defensive form, allowing opponents to create more scoring chances.
Looking Ahead
- Potential reinforcements in the transfer market are anticipated.
- Coudet aims to restore the team’s competitive edge.
As the season progresses, the club’s management and coaching staff will need to address these issues swiftly to reverse their current trajectory.
