Alaves vs Elche Prediction and Betting Tips | October 5th 2025

The action continues in round eight of the Spanish La Liga as Alaves and Elche go head-to-head at Estadio de Mendizorroza on Sunday. Eder Sarabia Armesto’s men head into the weekend as one of just two unbeaten sides in the league and will be looking to strengthen their position in the upper echelons of the table.

Alaves continue to struggle for results in the new La Liga campaign as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Mallorca at the Estadi de Son Moix last Saturday.

Eduardo Coudet’s side have failed to win five of their seven league matches, losing three and claiming two draws, with their two victories coming against Levante and Athletic Bilbao.

With eight points from the first 21 available, Alaves are currently 13th in the La Liga standings but could move into eighth place with a win this weekend.

Meanwhile, Andre Silva and John Nwankwo netted on either side of the halftime break to fire Elche to a 2-1 victory over Celta Vigo at the Estadio Martinez Valero last Sunday.

With that result, Armesto’s men have gone unbeaten in each of their seven La Liga games, claiming three wins and two draws in what has been a remarkable return to the top flight.

Having gained promotion from La Liga 2 last term, Elche find themselves fourth in the La Liga standings with 13 points from seven games, only behind Villarreal, Real Madrid, and league leaders Barcelona.
