Mirandes take on the visitors Elche in the round 40 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Friday, April 16th at Estadio Municipal de Anduva (Miranda de Ebro).
Mirandes are only causing a stir in the cup - in 2020, they once again reached the semifinals of the competition. However, the team has never played in La Liga - they have not risen above 8th place even in the country's second division. And after their return from the third division, they only managed to crack the top 10 once. Last year, they finished in 16th place, and there is a chance they could repeat it. But the battle for survival is far from over. Fortunately, they managed to consecutively beat Burgos and Racing Ferrol at the end of April, or they would have been languishing in the relegation zone altogether. After that, they faced the leader, Valladolid, and still lost to them 0-1. And then the same scoreline repeated with Racing Santander.

Elche are not convincing in the current season. The Green-Striped spent the previous three years in La Liga - a significant achievement for such a modest team. However, this achievement was largely nullified by the fact that the last season was horrible and ended with an early finish in 20th, last place. However, even at a lower level, in Segunda, Beckhesese's wards were considered potential favorites. In reality, they not only fail to compete seriously with Valladolid and Leganes but there are increasing doubts that the team will even make it to the playoffs. To do this, they need to finish in the top 6, and since the end of March, there have been clearly more losses than wins. There were even three consecutive losses, and in April, they only managed to beat Sporting 2-1, ending with draws against Zaragoza and Espanyol. And with Huesca, they didn't achieve anything at all - losing 0-3.
3 out of 5 of the last matches were won by the Pigs, with only one defeat. But this season, playing for the first time since 2020, the sides ended in a goalless draw. Based on the odds, more belief is placed in the away success of the Green-Striped. However, they are just as unstable and unconvincing as the hosts. Let's bet on under 2.5 goals scored total.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
