Barcelona welcome Alaves to the Nou Camp on Saturday evening looking to return to winning ways after consecutive defeats to Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
Hansi Flick's side remain top of La Liga with 27 points from 10 matches, while Alaves sit seventh with 12 points.
Barca have scored no fewer than 40 league goals already this season, while the visitors arrive without a win in their last six league matches.
Barcelona v Alaves Tips Summary
Best Bet - Over 10 total corners @ 4/6
Alternative Bet - Gabriel Jesus to score anytime @ 4/6
Bet Builder - Raphinha to score anytime, Anthony Gordon to assist, Barcelona to win by 3+ goals & Over 11.5 total corners @ 23/4
Barcelona v Alaves Prediction
Best Bet: Over 10 total corners @ 4/6
Barcelona's attacking approach makes the corner market an appealing selection at the Nou Camp.
The hosts average 7.2 corners won per La Liga match, while their opponents' matches have produced an average of 8.9 corners per game this season.
The relevant home and away statistics are even more encouraging, with Barca's last five home league matches producing an average of 14.4 total corners and Alaves' last four away fixtures producing an average of nine corners.
Seven of those nine matches have featured at least 10 corners, while the Blaugrana's high-possession approach should create plenty of opportunities for the hosts to push this line over.
Alternative Bet: Gabriel Jesus to score anytime @ 4/6
The hosts' attacking quality makes this an interesting opportunity for Gabriel Jesus.
The Brazilian offers a different option through the middle, with his movement and ability to find space in the penalty area making him a threat against a visiting defence that has conceded 11 goals in 10 league matches.
Barca have scored 40 goals in their opening 10 La Liga fixtures and have found the net in 36 consecutive home league matches.
Jesus will need to make an impact but has already netted four times since joining from Arsenal and Barcelona's attacking dominance should provide opportunities for him to get on the scoresheet again.
Barcelona v Alaves Bet Builder Tip
Raphinha to score anytime
Anthony Gordon to assist
Barcelona to win by 3+ goals
Over 11.5 total corners
Pays 23/4
Barcelona will be out for blood after last weekend's 2-1 El Clasico defeat to Real and Alaves could be on the receiving end of a reaction from Flick's side.
Raphinha is an obvious inclusion after scoring in the defeat in El Clasico. The Brazilian has scored in all four of his home league starts this season, making him an appealing goalscorer selection.
Anthony Gordon completes the attacking combination. The England international has registered four assists in 10 La Liga appearances and is expected to retain his place on the left flank. His delivery and link-up play give him a good opportunity to supply Raphinha.
Barca to win by three or more goals is the more ambitious leg, but there is reason to fancy a convincing response, especially as Alaves are winless in their last six.
Over 11.5 corners rounds off the builder. Barcelona and Alaves' relevant home and away fixtures have averaged 12 corners, with seven of the nine matches producing at least 10.
