Valencia – Elche : Preview & Prediction
FC Valence, 8th, will aim for victory in front of the poorly classified Elche, 16th, in order to get closer to European places. The formation of José Bordalas has been undefeated since last October 27 and remains on 2 successes in Utrillas (3-0) in the Copa del Rey and in the field of Celta Vigo (2-1) last weekend on behalf of the 16th day of La Liga. In Mestalla, the Valencian club have just beaten Villareal (2-0) and then shared the points with Atlético Madrid (3-3) and Rayo Vallecano (1-1). Defeated only once at home against Real Madrid (1-2), Valencia should beat this Elche team as in previous receptions (2-1, 3-1, 1-0) since 2014. Elche, 16th , has everything to fear from this move since he can slide a little more towards the relegation zone (3 points ahead of the 18th). Benedetto’s teammates (2 goals) have just scored 2 wins in their last two outings for Leioa (2-0) in the Copa del Rey and ahead of Cadiz CF (3-1) in the Spanish championship. Elche took only 2 points out of 18 in play during his last 6 trips in La Liga, notably recording 4 losses to Villareal (4-1), on the lawn of Real Sociedad (1-0), in Vallecano (2 -1) and Alaves (1-0). This trip to Valence could earn 0 points!
