Prediction: 2-1
Villarreal B
Elche will look to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Ferrol and Eibar when they welcome Villarreal B to their Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero on Saturday evening. Los Franjiverdes have been struggling to find their form at the start of the season, but it seems as if they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways. Midfielder John Donald Chetauya remains on the sidelines with a muscle problem, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Yellow Submarine, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to Zaragoza, with the team beating Eldense 3-1 in front of home fans. Villarreal B are likely to adopt yet another attack-oriented approach against Elche, but given their difficulties on the road, home win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
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.
