Elche vs Espanyol Predictions

Although we see Espanyol as a superior team to Elche, Espanyol as an away team have a very poor record, while Elche, being a limited team, have a stronghold on their home ground on which most of the points they get depend. This situation of equality makes us think that the match could end in a draw.
