MADRID (AP) — Valencia went a fourth straight game without a win as it was held to a 0-0 draw at Alaves in the Spanish league on Monday.
Arnaut Danjuma missed Valencia’s best chance early on as his shot was off target from a tight angle after being picked out by Javi Guerra at the far post on a counterattack.
Alaves then had a majority of the possession and Valencia goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala had to palm away a header from Toni Martinez in the 54th to preserve the stalemate.
The home side was seeking to record successive home league wins for the first time in a year.
The point lifts Alaves into 10th place in La Liga with 12 points from nine games. Valencia is 14th with nine points.
