Huesca vs Elche Predictions

• The last four meetings between the sides have all produced under 2.5 goals including October’s goalless stalemate at Estadio Martinez Valero.
• 19 of Huesca’s 29 league games have generated under 2.5 goals including ten of their 14 home starts.
• Elche’s last three fixtures have also produced less than three goals.

Sides set for a war of attrition at El Alcoraz

Both of these sides face their biggest game of the season to date at El Alcoraz this Friday night and we’re anticipating a tense, low scoring affair in Aragon.

This is a true relegation six-pointer with the teams sitting 17^th and 18^th respectively and just two points separate them going into this contest. It’s Elche who are currently keeping their heads above water, though the relegation picture will change markedly should Huesca manage to bag all three points.

We’re keen to avoid the match betting here though, as the sides drew 0-0 in October’s reverse fixture and have simply found victories extremely hard to come by throughout the campaign.

The sides have just nine between them in total, so the smart money looks to be on backing under 2.5 goals.

That’s been the outcome in the last four meetings, while 19 of Huesca’s 29 league starts have also produced under 2.5 including ten from their 14 matches here.

With Elche’s last three fixtures generating less than three goals and both teams averaging under one goal per game this term, this should be a real war of attrition, though we’re narrowly handing the vote to Huesca in the correct score market by virtue of their impressive 0-2 triumph at Levante last time out.
