On Sunday, Espanyol and Elche will face off in round 11 of the Spanish La Liga at the RCDE Stadium.
This weekend, the visitors will attempt to snap their losing streak, which dates back to March 2014 and includes four meetings. In La Liga, Espanyol was knocked back to earth on Thursday when they lost 1-0 to Osasuna. This disappointment came after the team won 1-0 against Real Valladolid on October 16, ending their four-game winless streak.
Espanyol is currently 16th in the La Liga standings, level on points with rivals Getafe and Mallorca. They have nine points from 10 games. Elche, on the other hand, failed to kick off their season, losing 3-0 at home to Real Madrid, the defending champions. They have lost seven games and drew three so far this season, failing to win any of them. With just three out of a possible 30 points, Elche heads into the weekend rooted to the bottom of the league standings.
Prediction
Elche is rooted to the bottom of the league standings after a disastrous start to the season. We predict that Espanyol will wreak more havoc on the struggling visitors and win narrowly in front of their own supporters.
Prediction: Espanyol 2-1 Elche
