The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Granada are in the 9th position while the guesting Elche worry at 19th.
- Granada have the most conceded goals (41) in La Liga
- Elche have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
It's no vacation for neither Granada nor Elche as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Granada form and stats
6-3-3 (win-draw-lost) are the La Liga numbers at home for Granada, who have the most conceded goals (41) in La Liga, so far this season.
Prior to that, an away loss at Huesca in the La Liga.
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 Granada have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won two times, drawn two and lost two.
The Granada fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 12 matches. On the other hand, Granada have conceded 15 goals.
Elche form and stats
There's been little loot from Elche's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 11 away games in the La Liga. Elche only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 3 draws. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Elche's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Elche play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Barcelona (placed 3rd). Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Eibar.
We have checked recent matches where Elche have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 18 games were eight victories, four draws and six defeats.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Elche as they have only managed to score 9 times from 11 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Elche have conceded 17 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
