From the source

Raphinha has established himself as one of Barcelona’s most influential attacking players under Hansi Flick, but there is one La Liga opponent against whom the Brazilian has yet to find the net.

Alaves presents that challenge again on Saturday, with the Barça captain looking to end a personal scoring drought that has survived four previous meetings. The 29-year-old has scored 15 goals in all competitions this season, including 13 in La Liga alone, making him one of the competition’s leading attacking performers.

Nevertheless, Alaves remains among a small group of Spanish opponents against whom he has never registered a goal since arriving at Barcelona in 2022. As seen in the statistical breakdown of the Brazilian, Raphinha has failed to score against six teams: Granada, Leganes, Levante, Cadiz, Alaves and Girona.
