Betting on Elche CF
The only team in this season of La Liga without a victory is the home team, who heads into this important match with high expectations of winning. With 5 points from 5 draws, the franjiverdes are in last place in the Spanish tournament, so their immediate goal is to move out of the relegation zone in order to stay in the Spanish First Division.
The team coached by Pablo Machín drew 1-1 in their last match against Cádiz. Although the home team had more ball possession and good approaches to the opponent’s area, it was not enough, as in the 81st minute Ezequiel Ponce equalized the score.
Possible Elche lineup (3-4-3): Edgar Badía; Helibelton Palacios, Enzo Roco, Diego González; José Carmona, Omar Mascarell, Gerard Gumbau, Carlos Clerc; Pere Milla, Lucas Boyé, Roger Martí.
Betting on CA Osasuna
Osasuna won their most recent game against Mallorca 1-0 to get back on the winning track. Aimar Oroz scored and crushed all the hopes of the opposing team. In addition to the outcome, Osasuna received the shots on goal and possession. They made a nice impression, but they had more chances to score goals.
The Osasuna team is currently in seventh position in the La Liga standings. The team coached by Jagoba Arrasate has so far this season achieved 8 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats. In the previous five matchdays, Osasuna has only recorded two victories. For this reason, they are hoping to win this Elche vs Osasuna match in order to keep getting stronger and work toward a position that will guarantee their participation in an international event the following season.
In addition, in the Copa del Rey, Osasuna advanced to the quarterfinals after beating Real Betis on penalties last Wednesday.
Possible Osasuna lineup (4-3-3): Aitor Fernández; Diego Moreno, Aridane Hernández, David García, Manu Sánchez; Aimar Oroz, Lucas Torró, Moi Gómez; Chimy Ávila, Ante Budimir, Abde Ezzalzouli.
JefeBet Prediction
We predict that Osasuna will win on the road in this Elche vs. Osasuna matchup. The team heads into the game under the influence of their comeback victory over Betis and with the possibility of making the tournament’s Top 6. Elche, on the other hand, is yet to claim a league victory, and its fans are growing increasingly concerned about their sporting performance.
Prediction: Osasuna win 1-0.
