Match preview
Elche host Real Madrid at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero in a clash between two sides at opposite ends of the La Liga table. The hosts are currently positioned in 19th place with two points from their opening matches, having conceded eight goals across their two home fixtures, including a heavy 5-0 defeat to Barcelona and a 3-2 loss against Real Sociedad.
Real Madrid sit second in the standings with 12 points, boasting an attack that has generated 10 goals in four league fixtures. Led by Kylian Mbappe with four goals, along with Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham contributing two assists each, the visitors possess considerable attacking depth despite missing Eder Militao, Ferland Mendy, and Rodrygo through injury.
Historical meetings heavily favour the visitors, with Real Madrid winning seven of the last ten encounters and remaining undefeated throughout that sample. Given Elche's defensive vulnerabilities and Madrid's firepower, the away side will look to control proceedings and secure maximum points.
