In our match preview informing you how to watch Barcelona's league trip to Alaves, we compare team statistics and analyze both teams’ head-to-head record.

What is the form of Deportivo Alaves compared to Barcelona?

Form does not favor the home side. Deportivo Alaves hasn't won a single game in their last five ties. In their last 10 league games, the eighth-placed side has won only twice, drawing half of those matches and losing three.

While Barcelona has drawn twice in their last four league games, against Huesca and Villarreal, they have not lost a game in La Liga since November 11 of last year. Since that loss, the Blaugrana has suffered only three defeats in all competitions, two coming in the Copa del Rey -- though they would pull off a second-leg comeback in both instances -- and one in the Supercopa de Catalunya against Girona.

Deportivo Alaves vs Barcelona head-to-head record

The Catalan giant understandably boasts a superior head-to-head record against the Basque side. However, it wasn't too long ago when Messi and Co. were shocked by Tuesday's opponent, losing 2-1 at home to them in the 2016/17 season.

Games played: 32

Alaves wins: 5

Who is injured/suspended for Deportivo Alaves vs Barcelona?

While Duarte returns from suspension, Jonathan Calleri will be forced to miss this game for that reason. Inui, Maripán, and Burgui all remain on the sidelines.

After beating Real Sociedad over the weekend, Valverde's men are six points away from defending their league title. The boss will thus be conflicted between attempting to wrap the league as soon as possible and resting his key men.

The likes of Messi, Pique, and Rakitic could thus all start on the bench, with Coutinho, Roberto, and Malcom likely to start. Dembele could also be given a breather ahead of their Champions League clash with Liverpool next week.
