Eder Sarabia Armesto
Coach since July 01, 2024.

Elche’s Season Performance Overview

Elche has been the revelation of the season in . Eder Sarabia’s team suffered their first defeat of the championship just before the October international break, and even then, against Alaves, the “green-striped” side lacked stamina in the final 15 minutes, which led to a chaotic finish (1-3). This marked the Alicante province team’s inaugural loss in the 8th round of the Spanish Primera Division. Notably, Sarabia was absent from the dugout for two matches due to an earlier dismissal, but with Jon Lopez in charge, they still managed to secure a home victory against Celta (2-1) shortly before.

Team News and Home Form Insights

Overall, at home in the Manuel Martinez Valero stadium, the hosts have remained undefeated this year, and they undoubtedly have similar aspirations against Athletic Bilbao. For this match against the Basques, Elche will be without the suspended Affengruber and Diangana, while Fort’s participation remains uncertain.

Ernesto Valverde
Coach since July 01, 2022.

Athletic Bilbao’s Recent Form Analysis

Bilbao began the season with three consecutive victories, but Ernesto Valverde’s team subsequently entered a significant slump, primarily due to squad issues and a demanding fixture schedule, compounded by their participation in the Champions League. In that competition, the ‘red-and-whites’ suffered two successive defeats (0-2 at home against Arsenal and 1-4 in Dortmund), while in the league, they only narrowly secured a 2-1 victory against Mallorca at San Mames in the closing stages just before the international break.

Squad Updates and Player Absences

This victory ended a streak of six winless matches out of seven (including one draw). While the injury situation has eased somewhat, with Nico Williams returning to the pitch along with a couple of other key players, they still need to regain full match fitness and rhythm after their respective injuries. For the away game in Elche, the visitors will definitely be without Prados Diaz (a crucial player), Alvarez, and Eguiluz.

Match Outlook and Elche’s Home Advantage

Indeed, several players have returned from injury for Athletic Bilbao, but they still need time to regain their peak physical condition. In contrast, Elche faces no significant injury concerns, and the team from Alicante province has remained unbeaten at home in this season (with three wins and one draw). Furthermore, Elche’s attacking line, spearheaded by André Silva and Rafa Mir, appears quite formidable.
