Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Elche and Cordoba face each other at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero in the closing match of the Segunda Division round 3. Los Franjiverdes aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Huesca and Albacete and we are positive that they are going to leave their hearts on the field. Both Carlos Clerc and Raul Guti remain in the treatment room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Los Blanquiverdes, on the other hand, kicked off the new La Liga 2 campaign with a 1-0 loss to Mirandes, while sharing the spoils with Burgos on Matchday 2. Cordoba, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on Elche, who are hungry for victory. To make things even worse for the away team, midfielder Adrian Lepena is banned for the match.
Highlighted Team (Elche):
Established in 1923, Elche is a Spanish club that competes in La Liga. Los Franjiverdes welcome their rivals at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero, the stadium which can hold up to 33,732 spectators. The venue was opened on September 8, 1976.
Elche wear white shirts with green stripe and white shorts when playing at home, while black is the dominant colour of their away jersey. The club’s biggest success came in 1969 as Elche made it to the Copa del rey final. Los Franjiverdes faced Club Atletico de Bilbao in the Spanish Cup final, with the Basques winning the match by one goal to nil.
The likes of Mario Pasalic, Ivan Bolado, Garry Rodrigues, Goran Djorovic, Albert Nadj, Wakaso, Moha, Carlos Sanchez, Ioan Andone, Enzo Roco, Dominique Malonga, Richmond Boakye, and Sory Kaba are some of the notable players who were part of the team in the past. Elche have never represented Spain in European competitions.
