Oviedo vs Alaves Match Preview: La Liga Fixture Analysis

Match Context

Oviedo host Alaves at Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere on 17 May 2026 in La Liga, Regular Season - 37. Oviedo sit 20th on 29 points with a goal difference of -30, while Alaves are 16th on 40 points and -12 goal difference.

Oviedo Availability

Oviedo face multiple midfield concerns.

• B. Domingues (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
• L. Dendoncker (Injury) is doubtful.
• O. Ejaria (Injury) is doubtful.

All three names appear repeatedly in the data but each must be treated as a single current case for this fixture. With no Oviedo players listed among the league’s top scorers, their absences primarily affect structure and control rather than proven goal output.

Alaves Availability

Alaves have a key suspension and a major attacking doubt.

• F. Garces (Suspended) is sidelined.
• L. Boye (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

L. Boye, with 11 league goals and 1 assist, is a major blow if he fails to feature, especially alongside the workload already carried by Toni Martínez, who has 12 goals and 3 assists.

Impact Summary

Based on team season statistics, Alaves risk losing a significant share of their attacking output if L. Boye does not play, placing even greater emphasis on Toni Martínez. Oviedo’s absentees weaken depth and balance but do not remove a top scorer from their lineup.
