Elche suffered a 1-0 away loss to Alaves on Tuesday but will be hoping for a lift at home when they host Real Madrid in the next round of La Liga matches. The hosts here are placed 15th in the league standings, with 10 points, while Real Madrid have 21 points at the top of the standings. Going to this game, Elche have just two wins in their 11 league games, and one win in the last five matches. They also have one clean sheet in the last five matches and scored more than a goal in just one of the last five matches. They’ve failed to score completely in two of their last five matches. In the last three matches, they’ve conceded two goals in two and head here without a win in six matches against Real Madrid.

Real Madrid drew 0-0 at home with Osasuna on Wednesday and will hope to do better here. It is getting crowded at the top and they know they have to start winning consistently. They are the highest scorers so far in the league and this quality should come to the fore against one of the weakest defences around. However, they’ll also need improvement defensively, having conceded five goals in their last five matches. four of Real’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and in this fixture, they’ve won five of the last six meetings. This season, they’ve played eight away matches, and lost just once, winning six. In La Liga, Real have lost just once in their last 20 away matches.
