Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Andorra welcome Elche to their Estadi Nacional on day 24 of the 2023/2024 Segunda Division campaign. Andorra made a slow start to the year, with the team losing to both Leganes and Zaragoza and they must be low on confidence ahead of Sunday’s encounter. Both Marti Vila and Christos Albanis are sidelined with injuries, but there are no other selection worries in the home team.
Los Franjiverdes, on the other hand, played out a goalless draw with Real Valladolid at the weekend, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive clean sheet in the Spanish second tier. As Andorra do not seem to be at the top of their game, a low-scoring affair is on the cards at Estadi Nacional. Oscar Plano misses out with a ligament injury, while Fidel faces race against the clock to be fit for Sunday’s encounter, speaking of the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Elche):
Established in 1923, Elche is a Spanish club that competes in La Liga. Los Franjiverdes welcome their rivals at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero, the stadium which can hold up to 33,732 spectators. The venue was opened on September 8, 1976.
Elche wear white shirts with green stripe and white shorts when playing at home, while black is the dominant colour of their away jersey. The club’s biggest success came in 1969 as Elche made it to the Copa del rey final. Los Franjiverdes faced Club Atletico de Bilbao in the Spanish Cup final, with the Basques winning the match by one goal to nil.
The likes of Mario Pasalic, Ivan Bolado, Garry Rodrigues, Goran Djorovic, Albert Nadj, Wakaso, Moha, Carlos Sanchez, Ioan Andone, Enzo Roco, Dominique Malonga, Richmond Boakye, and Sory Kaba are some of the notable players who were part of the team in the past. Elche have never represented Spain in European competitions.
