Alaves vs Elche Prediction, Betting Tips & Prediction

Alaves vs Elche
the spanish league
Date: Sunday, October 18, 2024
Starts at 17pm UK / 30pm CET
Venue: Mendizorrotza Stadium (Vitoria-Gasteiz).

Alavés are struggling to keep their defense in shape, and the six goals they have conceded in five matches so far are a clear example of their poor bottom line.

Playing at home is their greatest asset and the 1-0 home win over Athletic Bilbao will improve player morale.

Elche is above the hosts in the table, despite being a promoted team in the mix. They showed mixed form on the campaign, scoring all likely results on the form in three attempts.

The team are undefeated in their last two games, after a goalless draw at home to Huesca in their previous fixture on the league calendar.

Head-to-head Alaves vs Elche (h2h)

• The visitor registers three of the last five overall victories.
• The previous encounter resulted in a goalless draw.
• The two teams haven't scored in six games.
• Only one of the last six games ended in a draw.
• The hosts have lost just one of their seven home games.
• The visitor has failed to score in three of their last five visits.

Prediction Alaves vs Elche

Alves enjoys field advantage in the game and have only lost one of their last three games in the campaign. In addition, the home team is recovered from its first league victory in this period and will try to improve that form in the next game.

Elche are undefeated in their last two games, but their weak defense is unlikely to withstand El Glorioso's attacks for 90 minutes, especially in their new form. The home team lost only one of the last seven h2h home games with the promoted team.

Based on these stats, a full-time home win seems like the ideal option. However, punters are better off with the tip for Alaves to win any part of the match within ninety minutes. With odds of 1,44, it ensures more security for bettors to earn decent returns.

Also, the scoring average has been low for both teams this season. But the match will likely see some action midway through. The tip for more than 1,5 goals with odds of 1,57 will probably be enough for the goal area requirement.

Alaves vs Elche betting tips

• Over 1,5 goals for 1,57 (4/7).
