Valencia 3-2 Alaves — xTears 24.14 (08/03/26)

Valencia came back to win 3-2 against Alaves on 8 March 2026 during Matchday 27 of La Liga. Total damage: 24.14 xTears.

The real swing for Valencia arrived through Javi Guerra 47' goal (+1.34 xT) and E. Cömert 90' goal (+1.67 xT), the sequence that changed who owned the match.

The match changed hands after the first blow, and Valencia's comeback ended up outweighing the opening phase. Hugo Duro came off the bench and delivered the winning swing. It got worse for the side already chasing shadows: red card (Guevara at 90+6', while chasing it) and red card (Jon Pacheco at 90+7', while chasing it). The match lost its cool with 7 yellows and 2 reds. Guevara eventually walked for a second booking. The referee still loomed large under Jose Luis Guzman Mansilla, Spain.
