We have settled on the best three Eibar vs Elche predictions. Check the following to bet on our free picks for round 2 of the La Liga clash:
Half-time draw
In six previous meetings between Eibar and Elche, there was never a draw. However, we are tipping a draw at the break in this second game of the 2023/24 season. Both teams come to this game with a loss in round 1, so expect a difficult game from the onset and both teams fight to bag their first win of the season.
Eibar to win
Eibar have had the least number of wins in this matchup. However, were think they will win this duel, which is our second Eibar vs Elche prediction. It is not just home support that should motivate Eibar in this game after a losing start to the 2023/24 campaign but the hosts also have a better form than Elche in recent outings (excluding pre-season friendlies). Eibar tested their strength against Numancia in a friendly after losing 4-0 away against Racing Santander, a game they won 1-3.
Under 2.5 goals
In our final Eibar vs Elche prediction, we don’t expect a lot of goals in this game. The last four meetings were in La Liga, all of which ended with under 2.5 goals. The other two encounters were in La Liga 2, one of which had fewer than 3 goals. Thus, in 6 meetings, 5 games had under 2.5 goals, so factoring in the fact that both teams are struggling, we predict a low-scoring duel on Saturday.
