Sevilla vs Elche Prediction: The hosts are highly motivated

Prediction for the match between Sevilla and Elche, which will take place on January 28. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

In midweek Sevilla dropped out of the Spanish Cup, losing in extra time to Osasuna with a score of 1:2. Now they have nothing else to do but fully concentrate on the championship and try to squeeze the maximum points out of the remaining matches. Recall that Sevilla is 15th in the Spanish league table with 18 points, just one point more than Valladolid in the relegation zone. The gap between Betis, which is in the Eurocup competition, is catastrophic, with 10 points. On the other hand, the championship is just coming to the equator, and Sevilla has time. But now they have to solve the problem with the relegation zone or increase the gap from the bottom three.

Elche managed to get two points in the last two games, drawing with Cadiz and Osasuna, but it does not change the fact that the visitors are sitting in the 20th position with no chance to stay in the elite. Elche is 11 points behind Celta, sitting in 17th place, almost twice more than Elche managed to accumulate in 18 rounds played. Elche's away statistics are also awful: +0=3-6, 7:21 goal difference.

As written above, Sevilla is entirely focused on the championship of Spain, the Red-Whites will do everything possible to break into the European Cup competition at the end of the season, but so far, the South has a more concrete task, namely, to break away from the teams from the relegation zone. It is challenging to call Sevilla a home team this season, but let's look back at the previous years and how the southerners played on the home field. Elche is the clear outsider of the division; it is doubtful that the future guests will eventually retain their position in La Liga at the end of the season.
