Alcorcon topped the league’s table by the 16th round – by then, they gained 10 wins in 13 clashes; afterwards, they receded and attained only 2 victories in the next 15 rounds. Hosting the sixteenth-placed Tenerife in the last encounter, they ended in a draw. So, currently they sit 10th but still have chances to fight for playoffs (featuring a 5-point deficit); for this, they need to win though, whereas they are struggling on the road.
Despite the fact that the visitors on the day have descended that low, they are still one of the best division’s homesides. Of their 12 wins, they registered 9 in 15 home fixtures; away though, the record is miserable: in 8 latest trips, Alcorcon attained just 1 point. 3 of 4 sides’ head-to-heads saw Alcorcon win. That said, the team’s coming journey is not likely to bring 1 point at least – indeed, they won Elche during the last 2 years, but the victories were mostly picked up at home, while on Elche’s side, Alcorcon won only 1 of 6 recent clashes and lost 4. The hosts need to secure their placement in light of the end of the campaign. In front of their fans, they conceded just thrice. Now they welcome quite a comfortable side that struggle away and lose to any opponent. It would be highly appropriate for Elche to make use of the visitors’ struggles and please their fans with a win, and they will probably succeed to do so. The hosts ended winners in 2 successive home rounds, so, they are very likely to beat the travelers who find it very hard to play out of their stadium.
Prediction for the match: Elche to win home.
