Elche vs Valencia Prediction

It's been a long time since the two teams have faced each other in La Liga or in big games. Given that their most recent meetings took place in 2015, the five-year gap will have affected the dynamics of both parties. As a team promoted to La Liga, Elche will not be celebrated as a clear favorite in the match.

The home team takes advantage of the field advantage and also has the recent unbeaten series in the season so far. In addition, the visiting team is going through a crisis, with a sequence of two consecutive defeats in the program, before the trip to Elche.

Elche has more control when playing away from home. Surprisingly, in addition to a run of consecutive home wins in the last four attempts, the home team also did not score goals in the same period. That includes a defeat and a draw in two La Liga games this season at home.

Valencia have recorded just one win in their last fifteen matches across all major events on the calendar. However, that win was their only league win this season so far. Therefore, the possibilities of bats are also alive in the game.

The double chance that favors both sides will likely be the bettors' best bet as the match is becoming anyone's game at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero. Even if someone finds a breakthrough, it will be a narrow margin based on their current form in the campaign.
