Match preview

Can Elche start to find some form, even if it is surely too little too late?

Last weekend, Pablo Machín’s men sprung a massive surprise by beating Mallorca 1-0 at Son Moix, thanks to Lucas Boyé’s late winner.

This is just los Franjiverdes’ second win of the season, so they remain cut adrift at the bottom, 13 points from safety.

However, los Ilicitanos played with a freedom that suggests they believe they’ve got nothing to lose, which makes them dangerous opponents.

Real Valladolid meanwhile beat Espanyol 2-1 last Sunday, thanks to goals from Iván Sánchez and then substitute Álvaro Aguado.

Blanquivioletas had lost back-to-back games before this, but Pacheta’s team are now up to 14th, albeit a mere two points clear of the drop zone.
