Lamine Djamel opened the scoring in the 8th minute, followed by Dani Olmo, who netted twice in the 26th minute and stoppage time (90+3'). Alavés managed an early goal through Pablo Ibáñez in the 1st minute but could not maintain momentum.
The win temporarily moved Barcelona to the top of the La Liga table with 34 points, two ahead of Real Madrid, who face Girona on Sunday. Alavés remains on 15 points after suffering their sixth defeat of the season.
German coach Hansi Flick’s optimism after the 3-0 loss to Chelsea was evident in Barcelona’s performance. With injured players returning and improvements in training quality, the team extended their winning streak in the league to four matches and achieved their sixth consecutive victory against Alavés.
