Mansion Sports – The 2025/2026 LaLiga season brings another compelling fixture as Barcelona host Deportivo Alaves on matchday 14.

The match will take place at Camp Nou with kickoff scheduled for Saturday, 29 November 2025 at 16:00 local time.

Barcelona aim to capitalize on this opportunity to continue their pursuit of the league’s top position in their ongoing domestic campaign.

Hansi Flick’s squad currently sit second in the standings, trailing Real Madrid by just one point. Meanwhile, Alaves occupy 14th place with 15 points collected from their first 13 league matches.

Before the match gets underway, here is an overview of the predicted lineups for Barcelona vs Alaves in November 2025.

Team Conditions Ahead of the Match

Barcelona

Barcelona recently enjoyed a convincing 4–0 home victory over Athletic Bilbao in their latest LaLiga outing.

However, that momentum was halted following a 3–0 defeat to Chelsea in the Champions League at Stamford Bridge, a result that dealt a significant blow to Flick’s side, who struggled to find rhythm throughout the match.

The defeat leaves Barcelona in 18th place in the overall Champions League standings, having secured just seven points from five group-stage fixtures.

Despite the European setback, Barcelona remain in strong domestic form with three consecutive wins over Elche, Celta Vigo, and Athletic Bilbao since losing 2–1 to Real Madrid on 26 October.

They are now set for three straight league matches against Alaves, Atletico Madrid, and Real Betis before concluding the year with a decisive Champions League clash against Eintracht Frankfurt at Camp Nou.

Barcelona also hold an impressive record against Alaves, winning 35 of their 49 previous meetings, including a 1–0 victory last season.

Deportivo Alaves

Alaves arrive with a difficult recent record against Barcelona, having lost their last five LaLiga encounters.

Their most recent result avoiding defeat came in October 2021, while their last victory over Barcelona dates back to September 2016, when they delivered a stunning 2–1 upset at Camp Nou.

This season, Alaves have recorded four wins, three draws, and six defeats from 13 league matches, placing them 14th—four points clear of 18th-placed Girona.

After finishing 15th last season, Alaves still have room to grow and now enter their ninth LaLiga campaign in the last ten years.

Eduardo Coudet’s squad may benefit from additional rest, as they are not involved in European competitions.

They hope to take advantage of potential fatigue on Barcelona’s side following their demanding Champions League fixture.
