Preview
Valencia will look to return to winning ways when they host Alaves in the La Liga on Saturday.
Los Murciélagos head into this clash on the back of a 1-1 draw against Granada last week as Suárez’s first half goal was cancelled out by Soler in the second half; with both sides sharing the spoils.
Bordalas’ men are currently 2nd in the points table with 4 points from 2 matches.

On the other hand, Alaves are yet to get off the mark in the La Liga after they lost both their fixtures ahead of this clash.
After an opening day loss to Real Madrid at home, Alaves were once again on the wrong side of the result against Mallorca at home 0-1.
