Barcelona had zero shots on target and lost 1–0 to relegation-threatened Alaves
- Barcelona had 77% of the ball and fired 8 shots at Alaves — but not one was on target, and they lost 1–0 to a side fighting to avoid the drop
- Alaves, sitting just one point above La Liga's relegation zone on 40 points, scored through Iñaki Diabate in the 45th minute with just 9 shots of their own (3 on target)
- Bookmakers priced Barcelona as clear favourites at odds as short as 1.70 for an away win, making this a statistical and market anomaly in the same game
