Barcelona, currently third, now trails second-placed Atletico Madrid by just three points ahead of their derby with Real Madrid next weekend.
The match was hard-fought, with Alaves frustrating Barcelona for most of the game.

Gavi and Tomas Conechny were both substituted after a clash of heads.
Lewandowski had a couple of near misses, including a scuffed shot wide and a low effort from Pedri that was easily saved.
After halftime, Barcelona looked sharper with the introduction of Frenkie de Jong and Eric Garcia.
Lewandowski eventually broke the deadlock in the 61st minute, finishing from close range after a cross-shot from Yamal.
The goal marked Lewandowski’s 18th of the season, extending his lead as La Liga’s top scorer, now three ahead of Kylian Mbappe.
