The Deportivo Alavés will not have tickets for its fans in the match on Thursday against Rayo Vallecano in Butarque. The Madrid-based team has informed the Vitorian entity that it will not make available a number of seats for sale to its followers, which has caused great discontent in Alavés' offices. In fact, Alavés has confirmed that its board will not attend the presidential box during the match as a sign of their disagreement with the decision adopted by Rayo Vallecano. The entity led by Raúl Martín Presa has exhausted all means to make the match take place in their stadium, but the Community of Madrid rejected the precautionary measure presented by the club to be able to play in Vallecas. LaLiga also did not grant the club's request for a postponement yesterday due to the impossibility of their stadium hosting the match against Alavés. Beyond the fact that all the problems related to their stadium are something that does not affect them, Alavés feels harmed by the management that the Madrid-based club has had in relation to the tickets for the visiting public. The Gasteiz-based club had already issued a statement yesterday revealing that they had not received any information about the tickets for their fans and today, in a much harsher statement, they have shown their discontent for not having tickets for the match tomorrow. The statement issued by the babazorra entity says the following: The Deportivo Alavés has been informed by Rayo Vallecano that no tickets will be made available for sale for the visiting fans for the match tomorrow. In the face of this situation, and as a sign of rejection of the decision adopted, Alavés' board has decided not to attend the presidential box during the match. The Club considers it unacceptable that their fans are deprived of the possibility of accompanying and supporting the team. Fans are one of the fundamental pillars of football and form an indispensable part of the identity and essence of this sport. Alavés will defend with firmness the interests of its followers and demands that situations like this are not normalized or repeated. Alavés is currently in second place in the League with 3 points and 1 win in 1 match, with a 3-0 goal difference. Their next match is on February 28, 2027 against Getafe at the Vallecas stadium.
