The match is projected to feature under 2.5 goals, with a 40.0% chance of exceeding that mark.

Match Analysis
Alaves enters this fixture on the back of a less-than-ideal run, having failed to secure a win in their last three matches. They suffered defeats to Mallorca and Sevilla and managed a draw against Getafe. Despite these setbacks, Alaves has managed to maintain an average of 1.33 goals scored and conceded per game over their last five outings. Their expected goals statistics suggest they have the potential to score slightly more than they have been, while their defense, on paper, appears more robust than recent results indicate.
Elche, on the other hand, has been riding a wave of positive results, remaining unbeaten in their last three games, including victories against Celta and Oviedo, and a draw against Osasuna. Their defensive solidity is highlighted by two clean sheets in recent matches. However, their expected goals tally suggests they might have been slightly fortunate in terms of goal-scoring outcomes, given their lower expected goals figure.
Final Prediction
Alaves holds an edge in this encounter, largely due to playing on home turf and the statistical probability tipping in their favor. The key to watch in this game will be whether Alaves can capitalize on their expected goals potential and tighten their defense to convert this into a much-needed victory. Additionally, Elche's ability to continue their defensive resilience could be pivotal in determining the outcome.
