Alaves Analysis
The home team comes to this 2 nd round after the loss in their league debut, against Real Madrid, by (1‑4).

The home team usually acts in a tactical system in 4-3-3, favoring quick transitions, mainly through the wings.

One of Majorca’s weaknesses is maintaining possession of the ball, as they lose it relatively easily. The visiting coach is without Antonio Sanchez due to physical problems.
