Elche — Valencia 0:1: result, goals and stats

Elche head into this La Liga fixture in Spain riding a solid wave of momentum, remaining unbeaten across their last 5 outings while conceding just 2 goals in that stretch. In contrast, Valencia arrive struggling to find their rhythm, searching for a spark after sliding through a 4-match winless run.

Looking at the table, Elche sit 16th with 10 points from 10 matches, while Valencia find themselves in 19th place with 6 points. Head-to-head history shows a tight rivalry where Valencia have historically held the upper hand with 7 all-time victories, though recent meetings have seen honors shared more evenly. Both sides will have to manage squad depth as Elche miss Marc Aguado Pallares and Pedro Bigas, while Valencia face a heavy absentee list featuring David Otorbi, Kayne van Oevelen, Sergi Canos, Diego Lopez Noguerol, Harvey Elliott, and doubtful Umar Sadiq.

The odds point toward Elche as the favourites with a 40% chance of victory compared to 32% for Valencia, leaving a draw at 28% after Elche's opening chances grew by 2 percentage points. Calculations from these odds suggest Elche are more likely to win, with a likely score of 1:0.
