Game Preview
Real Madrid is immersed in the Club World Cup, so it will not play the match against Elche until February 15. Real Madrid can finish this weekend with one more title in their trophy cabinet, but further away from Barcelona in the Primera Division standings. The Whites still need to do a lot of work in La Liga if they want to get closer to Barcelona, who are still 8 points ahead of them.
So what’s the reason why Real Madrid isn’t playing this weekend? They are in Rabat playing in the Club World Cup, for which they have qualified for the final, which will be played this Saturday against Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia. For this reason, they will not play this weekend’s Liga match against Elche at the Santiago Bernabeu.
These two clubs square off after not seeing each other in a long time, and it seems like home field advantage might be important in this game. Elche is obviously not the finest of travelers as they have failed to earn max possible points from any of their most recent six visits, whilst Real Madrid has recently enjoyed five victories in seven top-flight matches at home.
Let’s check the latest picks, La Liga news, stats and La Liga expert picks for Real Madrid vs Elche. We’ve plenty of La Liga predictions for you to consider.
As seven of the last 10 top-flight games at the Real Madrid Stadium have produced two goals or fewer, they haven’t exactly been steeped in excitement. It is unlikely that a game featuring Elche, a side that hasn’t scored more than once in a long time while playing on the road, will feature many goals this time around as well.
Over the course of their past five LaLiga games, Elche’s defense has been decently looking, allowing just one goal to each of their opponents with the exception of Sevilla, who scored three goals against Elche. Any change from this scenario would be quite unexpected given that not many of Real Madrid’s La Liga games have ended with both teams scoring.
