Osasuna vs Elche Prediction and Betting Tips | 8th April 2023

Osasuna host bottom-side Elche at the El Sadar Stadium in La Liga on Saturday, as both sides look to return to winning ways.

Following back-to-back wins over Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao in the league and Copa Del Rey respectively, Los Rojillos have failed to win any of their next five.

This included two defeats and draws in four league matches, failing to score in any of them. On Wednesday, they held Bilbao to a 1-1 draw in the second leg of their cup clash to advance into the finals, where they face giants Real Madrid on 6 May.

Elche are rock bottom in the standings, with 13 points from 27 games and winning only twice as relegation looks certain, for they are 14 points adrift of safety with only 11 games remaining.

So far, the club have seen an incredible six managerscome and go but nothing could lift Los Franjiverdes out of the lurch yet.

There's no sign of improvement either, with their latest head coach, Sebastián Beccacece, seeing his tenure start on a sour note following a 4-0 drubbing at the hands of leaders Barcelona last weekend.
