Espanyol vs Elche Prediction: Espanyol to win a low-scoring game

Sunday matches in La Liga round 11 will begin with the match between the Catalan Espanyol and the Levantine team Elche. The Catalans are quoted as favorites, despite the lack of stability in the results. And it is difficult to call such a choice of bookmakers strange, because it is Elche that closes Primera stadnings. Let's take a closer look.

Espanyol

In October, the Catalans played four matches in La Liga: draws with Valencia and Cadiz, victory over Valladolid and defeat against Osasuna. Such results allow Espanyol to be 16th in the championship standings. However, the gap from the relegation zone and Girona is only one point. So the Parrots have a lot to worry about. Espanyol's home statistics are 17th in the division, with 4 points scored in five games, +1=1-3, 6-10 goal difference.

Elche

Elche is the only team in La Liga that has never won. Only three points after 10 rounds and a logical 20th place in the championship standings. In October, the future guests played four matches: defeats to Rayo Vallecano and Real Madrid, draws with Mallorca and Valencia. Elche's away record is also the worst in the division, with only one point from five games and a 3-14 goal difference.
