In these moments with three days left, the Franjiverdes occupy fifth place with 21 points. Ahead lie 23 points, the last team in the relegation zone playing another match last Wednesday; 26 points for Rocasa Canarias, 28 for Costa del Sol Malaga, and 35 for Bera Bera, the outstanding leader. Elche faces Grafometal La Rioja on the road this Wednesday on the penultimate day of the regular season. On Saturday, April 1, Motive.co welcomes Gijón, which sits eighth with 20 points, and the team then visits Pamplona to play Beti Onak, who have 13 points. The coaching staff of Joaquín Rocamora’s squad expects to win all three remaining matches. A trio of victories would help them break a three-game skid, which included a European draw with Guardés and Porriño. If positive results occur, finishing fourth becomes a real possibility, while Porriño faces Rocasa Canarias on the final day.
The Elche coach will rely on this evening’s match in La Rioja. The team will be without several key players due to injuries, including Danila So Delgador and Ivet Musons, who were unavailable in recent bets. The absence of those two affects the rotation and depth in the squad.
The Franjiverdes Warriors are scheduled to play both Wednesday and Saturday this week. Next week will bring a rest period in the Guerreras-Iberdrola League, with the final regular-season match set for Saturday, April 15. As the league heads toward the playoffs for the championship, another major moment approaches: the final stage of the Queen’s Cup. AtticGo carries a slim chance in the cup draw and will face the heavy favorite Barbera in the quarterfinals. Yet Elche has demonstrated in the last three seasons that it can compete at this level, having reached the semi finals and even winning one title in this competition.
