Barcelona to Win with Handicap (-1)
Although Elche is in good form lately with just one loss in the last six games, Barcelona is also on a tear with four wins in the last six matches in La Liga and a great showing against Napoli in Europa League.
So, despite our respect for Elche and their good run, we can't suggest anything else than a win for Barcelona in this game, probably by two or more goals. After all, Barca beat Elche in their last five h2h meetings and three of those wins were by two or more goals.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
Three of the last five head-to-head meetings between Elche and Barcelona have gone over 2.5 total goals, so we expect the same to happen when they meet on Sunday.
In addition to this, Barcelona averaged 2.96 goals per game in the league until now, while Elche averaged 2.50 goals per game in La Liga this season.

Recent form, team news, and probable lineups for Elche vs Barcelona
This is one of the closest duels of the round in La Liga, so let's check both teams out in more detail:
Elche
With four wins in the last seven games, Elche is in very good form right now and that is also obvious in the standings since Elche is now in the 14th spot in La Liga table. While that might not seem like much, keep in mind that Elche was in the relegation zone for a while, so being eight points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone is a huge thing for them.
Elche will miss John Donald, Javier Pastore, and Helibelton Palacios for this match, while Gerard Gumbau will miss the game to serve a suspension.
Elche predicted lineup:
Badia – Barragan, Roco, Bigas, Mojica – Morente, Mascarell, Guti, Fidel – Milla, Boye
Barcelona
Blaugrana enters this game in a good mood after beating Napoli in Europa League to get to the next stage. The team is without a loss in the last nine league games and they are currently third in the standings in La Liga. So, things are going very well for Barcelona and the fans are certainly pleased by the job that Xavi has done since he took over the team.
Samuel Umtiti, Ansu Fati, Alejandro Balde, and Sergi Roberto are all out of this match through injuries, while the rest of the team is healthy and ready to play.
Barcelona predicted lineup:
Ter Stegen – Dest, Mingueza, E. Garcia, Alba – F. de Jong, Busquets, Pedri- Traore, Torres, Gavi
