Elche desperately need points on Sunday, Oct 18 at 3:00 PM in the LaLiga. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.
Villarreal come into this fixture in mixed form (0W 2D 0L). Elche travel in mixed form (0W 1D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Villarreal here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Elche, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Villarreal won 2–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Villarreal a slight edge, but Elche are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
