Our Elche vs Valencia predictions for today’s 5.30pm (UK time) kick-off back Elche to win at 29/20 (bet365), with our score prediction Elche 1-0 Valencia. Elche welcome Valencia to the Martinez Valero on Sunday at 5.30pm (UK time), two misfiring sides who badly need the points in La Liga.
Sitting 15th on 10 points, Elche are a curious team who have been far better away from home than on their own patch. They have won just twice all season, lost only once in six on the road, yet have failed to win any of their four games at the Martinez Valero so far.
Valencia, meanwhile, travel down in 19th having managed only one win from 10 matches, a goal difference of minus 10 telling its own story. Our Elche vs Valencia predictions and betting tips look for value in a meeting of two struggling attacks.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has studied the numbers and lands on two selections for a low-key clash at the Martinez Valero.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Elche to win | 29/20 (bet365) | Elche are unbeaten in four of their last five, winning 3-0 at Rayo Vallecano last time out and keeping clean sheets in each of their last three league games. Valencia have won once all season, a 1-0 at Deportivo Alaves, scored only seven goals and been blanked in five of their 10 league games. Elche are still waiting for a first home win, which is why the price is this big, but they face the second-worst attack in the division. Elche to win at 29/20 with bet365 is the play. |
| Under 1.5 goals | 5/2 (bet365) | Goals have been in short supply whenever these teams play, and the form lines point the same way. Elche have scored just four times in four home outings this season, while Valencia have drawn a blank in half of their league games and average fewer than a goal a game across the campaign. Four of the last five meetings between them produced two goals or fewer, including a 1-0 and a 1-1. With neither attack firing, a cagey, low-scoring afternoon looks the likeliest outcome, and under 1.5 goals is a fair price worth taking. |

How Elche go into the game
Elche have been strangely toothless at home, where they are still without a win this season. They were held to a goalless draw by Celta de Vigo and beaten in three of their four games at the Martinez Valero, conceding 11 times on their own ground.
The away form tells a different story. Elche won 3-0 at Rayo Vallecano last time out and also won 3-1 at Espanyol, losing just once in six on their travels. In total they have scored 14 and conceded 17, with three clean sheets and three blanks across the campaign.
How Valencia go into the game
Valencia’s season has been a grind. One win from 10, seven goals scored and 17 conceded, and a 2-1 home defeat by Villarreal last time out that summed up their troubles in front of goal.
Oddly, their only victory came on the road, a 1-0 win at Deportivo Alaves, and they have been more solid away than at Mestalla. Even so, Valencia have failed to score in five of their 10 league games this season.
Elche vs Valencia head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11/04/26 | Elche | 1-0 | Valencia |
| 10/01/26 | Valencia | 1-1 | Elche |
| 23/04/23 | Elche | 0-2 | Valencia |
| 15/10/22 | Valencia | 2-2 | Elche |
| 19/03/22 | Elche | 0-1 | Valencia |
These two have been evenly matched when they meet, with Valencia winning two of the last five league meetings to Elche’s one, and two draws in between. The hosts did take the most recent encounter, a 1-0 home win last April, and will fancy their chances of repeating it.

|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1.5 goals | 5/2 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Goals have been in short supply whenever these teams play, and the form lines point the same way. |
| Elche to win | 29/20 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐ | A first home win has to come at some point, and 19th-placed Valencia have won only once all season. |
| Both teams to score – No | 6/5 (Sky Bet) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Valencia have been blanked in five of their 10 games and Elche have three clean sheets to lean on. |

| Elche 1-0 Valencia | 8/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | A narrow home win suits a tight game between two sides low on confidence and goals. |
Elche vs Valencia score prediction
There is little between two poor teams here, but home advantage and Valencia’s dismal scoring record just tip it. A tight, low-scoring game decided by a single goal looks the way to go. Score prediction: Elche 1-0 Valencia.
