Elche take on the visitors Andorra in the round 10 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Monday, October 9th at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero (Elche).
Elche have had a much worse start than expected. The Green-Striped team is not highly regarded, but they spent the previous three seasons in La Liga. They even secured a 13th-place finish in the 2021/2022 season, which ultimately resulted in their relegation to the 20th position. Despite their modest performance, this team was still considered a favorite to win in Segunda. However, their performance has been far below expectations, with only a couple of wins amid numerous draws and losses. After a decent start with 8 points from 4 matches, they suffered a 0-4 defeat against Burgos and a goalless draw at home against Levante. In the last match against Sporting in Hihon, they suffered another defeat, 0-2.

The Tricolors have been around for quite some time but had a rather humble existence, similar to their national team namesake. They played at a regional, Catalan level without any notable achievements. However, possibly due to some parallels with Monaco (another club from a mini-enclave but much more successful in every sense), Gerard Piqué took notice of this semi-amateur project. He not only cleared the debts of the Tricolors but also started investing in the club. As a result, the decision was made to start competing in Segunda B initially, and in 2022, they earned the right to play in the second-tier division of Spanish football. They didn't immediately contend for promotion, but finishing 7th was a strong statement for their future ambitions. After the break, they started with two wins but then suffered three consecutive losses. Their results were inconsistent, with a narrow victory over Oviedo followed by a goalless draw against Sporting (Hihon). After a 1-3 loss to Albacete, they faced the current leaders Zaragoza and lost 0-1.
This will be the first football match between these two clubs. The more experienced Gunners, who are playing on their home turf, will be the clear favorites. However, neither team has been particularly impressive lately. We recommend betting on total under 2.5 goals in this match.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
