Almeria vs Elche prediction 17.02.2025 | La Liga 2

• Competition: La Liga
• Date: Monday, 17th February 2025
• Kickoff: 19:30 UK / 20:30 CET
• Venue: Power Horse Stadium (Almería)

La Liga 2 are one of the most exciting European leagues this season, as only seven points separate the first eight teams. Almeria and Elche are among those teams. 

Last season, Almeria played in La Liga, but they collected only 21 points in 38 matches. However, Almeria made some tweaks in the squad, so the team from Power Horse Stadium is one of the biggest candidates for promotion. Rubi's team are currently four points behind the league leader, Racing Santander. Almeria was playing well this season until the last few matches. They have not won in the previous five games in all competitions, and Rubi's team needs one good result to return on the right track. Last weekend, Almeria lost 3-1 on the road against Deprotio La Coruna. The home side converted almost every solid opportunity and secured a big win. 

Elche lost their La Liga status two years ago, but now, they are only two points behind Racing Santander and have a good chance to return to the strongest national division. Elche are in solid form, with a 2-1-1 record in the last four matches. In the previous game, they won 2-0 at home vs Tenerife. The teams were pretty even, but eventually, Elche's much better efficiency made the difference. 

Almeria vs Elche pick: Elche to win or draw

The teams are in a different moment. While Almeria are struggling without a win in the last five matches, Elche is in solid form. The upcoming game in Almeria should be close, but Elche should avoid defeat.
