Impact Escalante hit the showers early due to a very harsh tackle. Santiago Ascacibar and Cristian Bonaiuto came in after halftime to bolster the midfield and one of the two will get the nod next Monday versus Roma.

Impact Escalante is in good form having scored in his last two games and scored in five of his last 10 appearances. The Argentinian midfielder has a great chance to extend his scoring tally in Alaves's next match against bottom of the table Levante. Levante have conceded 67 goals this season (the most in La Lige) and their goalkeeper, Dani Cardenas, has not kept a clean sheet in five matches.

Impact Escalante had a solid performance ahead of the defensive line and also found room to support the attacking end, which included stepping into the box to slot home a pass from the left flank and made it 2-0 for Alaves at the half-hour mark. This was the fourth goal over 15 La Liga appearances for the midfielder this season. The bad news is that he picked up his fifth yellow card, which means he'll be suspended for next Saturday's visit to Celta Vigo. Tomas Pina is the likeliest candidate to replace him.

Scores again in loss Escalante scored one goal on one shot during Saturday's 4-1 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact Escalante has scored three times in the last five matches, during which his side have recorded one draw and two losses. These are the goals his team has been desperately missing aside from Joselu, though Escalante can at least make himself a useful pick in fantasy as the season nears its conclusion and Alaves fight to avoid relegation. Up next is a trip to Osasuna.

Impact Escalante had another nice two-way performance here, with his biggest contribution coming in the 53rd minute, when he headed home a corner kick from the left to momentarily draw things level at 1-1.

Impact Escalante found the back of the net for the first time since joining Alaves on loan during the winter transfer window. The midfielder appeared completely unmarked in front of the goalkeeper to head home a cross from the left and open the scoring just before halftime. He added some nice defensive numbers to his stat line and these strong performances will probably make him a key piece for his side during the second half of the season. Up next for Escalante is Friday's home clash against Sevilla.

Makes debut in draw Escalante put one shot off target in 49 minutes of Sunday's scoreless draw with Athletic Club.
Impact Escalante alternated debuts with Jason as each got plenty of minutes during a rainy derby. Getting production from the wings has been difficult for Alaves this season, so both Escalante and Jason will do their best to offer new alternatives in the attack. Additionally, Escalante has the benefit of playing under manager Jose Luis Mendilibar, who recently took charge of Los Gloriosos.
