THE PREDICTION

Alaves have been relatively active in the transfer window with the return of Facundo Pellistri on loan from Manchester United alongside the loan acquisitions of Mamadou Loum, Ivan Martin and Manu Garcia. The hosts survived fairly late in the campaign under the stewardship of Javier Calleja with an entertaining style of football. They come up against Real Madrid with the return of Carlo Ancelotti that look slightly light on defensive structure without Raphael Varane and Sergio Ramos as well as there being no reinforcements. Both teams scoring seems likely in this opening day encounter.
