On Saturday, March 11, bottom team Elche will take on Real Valladolid at the Estadio Manuel Martnez Valero in an effort to build on their recent victory.
Last weekend, Los Franjiverdes defeated Mallorca 1-0 on the road, their only win of the top-flight season. The visitors gave their supporters something to cheer about when Lucas Boye scored the game’s only goal in the 88th minute.
Interestingly, it was their second victory in their last five games after their first victory of the season against Villarreal at the beginning of February.
However, Pablo Machn’s team remains at the bottom of the table with just 12 points from 24 games, 13 points from safety, and only 14 games to avoid relegation.
In contrast, Valladolid is currently sitting in 14th place with 27 points after defeating Espanyol 2-1 at home on Sunday. Ivan Sanchez and Alvaro Aguado scored either side of the break for Blanquivioletas, who were two objectives to great before Martin Braithwaite pulled one back late on for the guests.
