Girona vs Elche Prediction and Betting Tips | April 16th 2023

Girona will entertain last-placed Elche at the Estadi Montilivi in La Liga on Sunday.

The hosts are unbeaten in their last three league outings and in their previous outing, they held league leaders Barcelona to a goalless draw. They have just one win to their name in their last five games, which has prevented them from climbing into the upper half of the league table.

Elche's season has gone from bad to worse as they have suffered consecutive defeats in their last three games. Espanyol and Valencia, 19th and 18th in the league standings respectively, have a 14-point lead over them.

In their previous outing, they took the lead in the 44th minute via Tete Morente which was undone by Abde Ezzalzouli's brace as Osasuna recorded a 2-1 win.

Girona vs Elche Prediction

Blanquivermells have recorded four wins in their last six home games, suffering defeats in the other two games. They have just two wins at home against Elche but, considering the visitors' poor form, Girona have a very good shot at securing their first-ever league double over the visitors.

Los Franjiverdes have struggled for form throughout the season and will need nothing less than a miracle to retain their top-flight status. They have failed to score in three of their last five away games and have suffered four defeats in that period.

Girona are expected to eke out a win in this home game.

Prediction: Girona 2-1 Elche
