Elche's search for their first victory of the 2022-23 La Liga campaign will continue on Friday evening when they welcome Celta Vigo to Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero.
The home side are bottom of the table, boasting just four points from their opening 15 matches of the season, while Celta sit 17th, having collected just 13 points from their opening 15 games of 2022-23.
We say: Elche 1-1 Celta Vigo
Celta have drawn three of their last five in La Liga, while they are without a victory since the start of October. Elche are yet to triumph this season, but we have a feeling that the home side will be good enough for a point on Friday night, which would certainly be a step in the right direction.

Valencia will be bidding to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome struggling Cadiz to Mestalla on Friday night.
Los Che suffered a 2-1 defeat to Villarreal in the league on December 31, which left them in seventh spot in the table, while Cadiz drew 1-1 with Almeria in their last league match on December 30.
We say: Valencia 2-1 Cadiz
Valencia failed to overcome Cadiz in the league last season, while they lost to the Yellow Submarine in April 2021. The visitors are certainly capable of making this an uncomfortable match for Los Che, but we are expecting them to emerge victorious on Friday night.
