Head to head
Looking over their prior head-to-head meetings dating back to 10/05/2015 shows us that Elche CF have won 1 of these and Villarreal 3, with the tally of drawn games standing at 2. n all, 15 goals were scored between the two sides in these games, with 4 for Los Franjiverdes and 11 for El Submarino Amarillo. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.5.

The last league game featuring these clubs was La Liga match day 4 on 04/09/2022 and the score finished Villarreal 4-0 Elche CF. On that day, Villarreal had 53% possession and 18 shots on goal with 10 of them on target. Goals were scored by Gerard Moreno (26'), Giovani Lo Celso (36'), Francis Coquelin (89') and José Luis Morales (93'). At the other end, Elche CF got 7 shots on goal with 0 of them on target. The match was refereed by Miguel Ángel Ortiz Arias.

Prediction
We’re of the view that Elche CF will likely create enough chances to put a goal past this Villarreal outfit, but a single goal might not be enough to avoid defeat. We’re going for a close game with a 1-2 victory for Villarreal after 90 minutes. We are expecting it to be pretty even.

正面交锋
回顾他们在2015年5月10日之前的交锋，我们发现埃尔切赢了1场，比利亚雷亚尔赢了3场，平局总数为2场。在这两场比赛中，双方共进了15球，其中4球属于弗兰基维德队，11球属于阿马里洛队。也就是说场均进球数是2.5个。

这些俱乐部参加的最后一场联赛是在2022年9月4日的西甲第4比赛日，比利亚雷亚尔4-0埃尔切CF。当天比利亚雷亚尔的控球率为53%，射门18次，其中10次正射。杰拉德·莫雷诺(26')，吉奥瓦尼·洛·塞尔索(36')，弗朗西斯·科奎林(89')和José路易斯·莫拉莱斯(93')进球。在另一端，埃尔切有7次射门，其中0次射正。比赛由米格尔Ángel Ortiz Arias担任裁判。

预测
我们认为埃尔切很有可能创造出足够多的机会，让比利亚雷亚尔破门，但一个进球可能不足以避免失败。我们将在90分钟后1-2战胜比利亚雷亚尔，这将是一场势均力敌的比赛。我们预计比赛会相当激烈。
