**Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain – October 5, 2024** – Barcelona, currently leading the La Liga standings, will be looking to extend their lead this Sunday when they face Deportivo Alaves at the Mendizorroza. The Catalan giants come off a dominant 5-0 victory against Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League but suffered a 2-4 defeat to Osasuna in their last La Liga match.

Alaves are currently in 11th place after losing their previous match against Getafe. While a win against the league leaders would be a significant boost for their season, it will be a challenging task.
**Match Details:**
* **Date:** Sunday, October 6th
