AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Lucas Boyé opened the scoring in the 27th minute, converting from Mariano Díaz, before Díaz himself doubled the lead nine minutes later with an assist from Sivera. Osasuna responded immediately after the restart through Ante Budimir, set up by Moi Gómez, but Boyé restored the two-goal cushion within six minutes of the second half beginning, finishing a Carles Aleñá assist to make it 3-1.
Budimir pulled another back from the penalty spot in the 64th minute to make it 3-2, but Alaves quickly snuffed out any hope of an Osasuna comeback. Boyé completed his hat-trick in the 68th minute, teed up by Angel Pérez, and Pablo Ibáñez added a fifth in stoppage time, again assisted by Pérez, to seal a comprehensive victory.
Alaves edged the possession share at 51 per cent and outshot their visitors 12 to 7, with seven of those efforts on target compared to Osasuna's five, underlining their control across both halves despite the visitors' late-match resistance.
Boyé scored three times, including the decisive third and fourth goals, to finish with a rating of 9.36 in a display that dictated the contest from open play.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Alaves 37%, the draw 32%, Osasuna 31%. It finished Alaves 5–2 Osasuna.
Level sides, home ground holds off Osasuna's cold finishing due to recover — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and La Liga home advantage gives Alaves the lean. The draw at 32% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Alaves in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1815 to 1804. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,604 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). La Liga home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (28.3% vs 30.2%). La Liga homes won 46.7% of 6,115 games vs 44.9% across all 99,907 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 37%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Osasuna sit -0.33 goals per game below chance-quality — cold streaks like this have bounced back. Visitors this cold went on to win 32.4% of 1,350 games, vs 29.1% for visitors finishing normally. Osasuna hold 10 more possession points (50 to 40 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 40.2% across 5,575 games, from 44.0% when styles were level.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Osasuna win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.4 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,753. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw. The goals environment adds 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Alaves have gained 63 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 41.4% of 12,314 such games vs 40.7% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Alaves are missing 1 regular starter — Toni Martínez — about 22% of their usual starting-XI weight. A body count alone told us nothing. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
