Elche vs FC Barcelona – Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips 06/03/22, Team News and Lineups
Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Away Win and Three or more total match goals – 2.20
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Handicap FC Barcelona -1 goal – 2.25
Match Predict – Away Win and Three or more total match goals
Barcelona are at their best level of the season, with a very attacking game and a very advanced defence in their opponents’ half. They are also unbeaten in nine successive away games and are currently one of the best teams, if they are not already the best, given the superiority they have shown in their last few games.
Handicap FC Barcelona -1 goal
Barça’s last three victories have been by a margin of at least two goals, so it seems very likely that this superiority will also be seen in this match. For this reason, it seems to us a good Handicap to deduct a goal from them and that they still could win the match.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Elche vs FC Barcelona
Elche’s last five matches have had a total of 16 goals, with seven goals scored and nine conceded. Of the nine goals conceded, seven were conceded in the second half.
The first halves of Elche’s games tend to be minutes of few dangerous chances, either for Elche or against them, and in their last six games there have only been three goals in the first 45 minutes of the game.
On Barça’s side, their last five games have been full of goals, with up to 20 goals, 13 for them and seven against.
The highest scoring periods in their last five matches are completely even, with ten goals in the first half and another ten goals in the second half. In their last two games they have scored four goals in the first half and four goals in the second half.
Barça are especially dangerous in the last ten minutes of their matches, as 12 of the 46 goals scored so far have come in that period of their matches.
Safe Bets
The way Barça are coming into this match, we find it hard not to believe that they will attack from the first minute of the match, so we think that Barça’s first goal in this match will come in the first half. This bet has odds of 1.57 at William Hill.
