LiontipsValladolid vs Elche. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga
Command Analysis
Avoiding defeats for three consecutive home matches, Valladolid will have to try hard to stay in mid-table after a 0:2 loss to Osasuna. Midfielder Roque Mesa is not underestimating the opposition - he said that they will have to «give 200%» against Elche. His concerns are valid, since Pucela have suffered three of four latest defeats from relegation-threatened teams.
Ahead of the forthcoming fixture, Pacheta's men have four victories and two draws, delivering 14 points and an 11th spot in the standings. Anuar, Kenedy, Malsa and Perez will miss the upcoming game.
Mesa has described Elche as wounded, but some could call them dead after a 0:1 defeat to 10-men Getafe last Monday. After that loss, team's winless run has reached 12 La Liga games.
Being at the bottom of the league with record-breaking 27 conceded goals at this point of the season, meager four points leave the White-Greens the worst team in Europe Top-5 leagues after 12 matches. Alamo, Fernandez, Fidel, Palacios and Pastore will miss the upcoming game.
