Elche's recent form suggests a team struggling to secure victories, with only two draws in their last five matches.

Their 4-2-3-1 setup suggests a balanced approach, capable of both defending and attacking effectively. With players like Axel Witsel and Iván Martín in midfield, Girona might control the game's tempo and look to exploit any gaps in Elche's defence.

Elche's recent form has been inconsistent, with only two draws and three losses in their last five matches. This lack of wins could impact their confidence going into the game against Girona.
