Elche form and stats

1-3-1 (win-draw-lost) are the La Liga 2 numbers at home for Elche so far this season.

Elche are returning here after visiting Girona in a La Liga 2 game and winning with a 2-0 scoreline. Before that, Elche drew at home versus Rayo Vallecano.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Elche have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won 5 times, drawn 3 and lost 2.

Elche have scored 4 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. Elche's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 5 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Sporting Gijón form and stats

0-2-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Sporting Gijón, who have the fewest scored goals (1) away in La Liga 2, in their La Liga 2 matches away.

The manager José Alberto López was unhappy after their last game, a La Liga 2 match played at their home ground Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero. Sporting Gijón suffered a 1-3 loss to Alcorcón (placed 11th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Fuenlabrada wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

We have checked recent matches where Sporting Gijón have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were W0-D2-L6.

Goals are few and far between in Sporting Gijón's away league games. Only 1 goal from 5 travels. Sporting Gijón have conceded 5 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Elche-Sporting Gijón H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Elche 4 wins, Sporting Gijón 0 wins, 6 draws. 3 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
