Espanyol vs Elche – Latest form, news, and possible lineups
The home team is certainly the favourite in this game, but we can see a close duel after all. In any case, let's check both teams out in more detail.
Espanyol
In the last six games, Espanyol has three wins and three losses. Not only that, but they alternated between a win and a loss in that time. So, the team is obviously tough to handle in terms of predictions, but overall, Espanyol is having a good season. The team is currently eleventh in the standings, which is pretty good for a returnee to La Liga.
Once again, Espanyol will be without injured Lopez, while Merida, Llambrich, and Morlanes are questionable since they recently tested positive for coronavirus. Otherwise, the team is in good shape when it comes to health.
Espanyol predicted lineup:
D Lopez – Vidal, Gomez, Cabrera, Pedrosa – Darder, Bare – Embarba, Melamed, Puado – De Tomas
Elche
The team that struggled last season to stay up seems to be on the same path of fighting against relegation for this season as well. At the moment, Elche is ahead of Alaves, the first team in the relegation zone, only thanks to a better goal difference. On the bright side, the team wasn't so bad lately, with one win, two draws, and three losses in the last six games.
When it comes to possible lineup, there are many questions for Elche. Perez and Casilla are dealing with minor injuries and fitness issues, so they might miss the game. Roco tested positive for COVID and he is also questionable. On top of that, Gonzalez and Fidel will miss the game to serve their suspensions.
Elche predicted lineup:
Badia – Palacios, Roco, Bigas, Mojica – Josan, Mascarell, Marcone, Morente – Boye, Perez
