How to watch Real Madrid vs. Alaves: La Liga live stream online, TV channel, prediction and odds

Real Madrid are looking for a ninth consecutive La Liga win on Tuesday when Alaves visit the recently crowned Spanish champions. Carlo Ancelotti’s men thumped Granada last time out while the visitors drew with Girona in their most recent game. Real lead the league with 90 points and now have a UEFA Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund to look forward to as well.

Los Blancos now need to carefully manage the next few weeks to keep the players as fresh as possible for the UCL date at Wembley. Ancelotti already did this for the Granada win which ended 4-0 and Real’s Santiago Bernabeu record is strong with 47 points picked up in the Spanish capital with Real Betis still to come on home soil.

Alaves have had a tough time of it on the road with just 14 points all campaign although they did famously win at Real in late 2020 although the midtable side have no relegation worries and can essentially view this one with no real pressure. With 10 points from 12, Luis Garcia Plaza’s side are n decent form but it will take a lot to stop this current Real roll.
