Elche vs Celta Vigo Comments and Predictions: Deep into the Crisis
Elche just had a disappointing match against Atletico Madrid. In addition to having to leave with a 0-2 defeat, coach Pablo Machín's team also had two players disqualified, including Gonzalo Verdu and Domingos Quina. And of course, the duo had to be reluctant to act as spectators when the home team welcomed Celta Vigo.
With a decline in performance, and a serious shortage of forces, Elche is forecasted to continue to sink deeper into the mud of crisis. It should be known that, before facing Celta Vigo in this round of 16, Elche was in the last position on the table with 9 points less than the safe area.
After 15 rounds, Machin's teachers and students drew only 4 matches, the rest lost all. They scored 10 goals but conceded 33 times, ie an average of 2.2 goals per game. From a betting perspective, Elche achieved a 20% win rate, the lowest in the tournament.
On the opposite side, Celta Vigo drew the last 2 rounds, against Vallecano and Sevilla respectively. On all fronts, they won 3, drew 3 in the last 6 matches. Away, the Galician team won 2, drew 1 in the last 3 matches.
