Coudet Sticks to Same Lineup: Calebe on the Right Wing and Carlos Vicente on the Bench

Eduardo Coudet, the coach of Deportivo Alavés, has decided to maintain the same lineup for their upcoming match against Valencia. This follows a successful 3-1 victory over Elche two weeks prior. The match will take place at the Paseo de Cervantes.

Coudet Sticks to Same Lineup

Coudet’s choice sees Brazilian player Calebe returning to the starting position on the right wing. He had previously been limited to only 37 minutes due to thigh discomfort but is now fit to play from the start. Meanwhile, Carlos Vicente remains on the bench for the second consecutive match.

Strategic Formation and Players

  • Calebe will play on the right wing.
  • Carlos Vicente is benched again.
  • Training sessions show Coudet favoring inverted wingers.
  • Abde will play on the left wing.

Coudet retains a solid defensive lineup, featuring Jonny at right back and Yusi at left back. The central defense remains unchanged with the pairing of Tenaglia and Pacheco, which has shown stability, particularly after Garcés’ suspension. Sivera will continue as the goalkeeper, supported by these defenders.

Midfield and Offense

In the midfield, Coudet maintains the duo of Blanco and Pablo Ibáñez. Blanco, who is the captain, is set to celebrate his 100th match with Alavés during this game. This solid midfield partnership aims to facilitate attacking plays.

  • Blanco and Pablo Ibáñez form the midfield pivot.
  • Calebe and Abde will provide support to forwards Boyé and Toni Martínez.

Alavés previously recorded a significant attacking performance against Elche, achieving 25 shots and 14 corners, which resulted in their victory. Coudet plans to replicate this offensive strategy against Valencia, showcasing confidence in the current squad. This consistent approach will mark the first time since August that his team has repeated a starting eleven.

As the match approaches, all eyes will be on Alavés to see if they can deliver another strong performance and further their success in the league.
