LIVESTREAM: Elche vs Real Madrid [SPANISH LALIGA] - LIVE MATCH

Elche are winless in their last 12 matches against Real Madrid in LaLiga (D2 L10) since a 3-1 win in March 1978 – it’s their longest winless run against the Whites in the top-flight. 

Elche are winless in their last six games played on a Wednesday in LaLiga (D2 L4), while Real Madrid are unbeaten in their last 13 matches on a Wednesday in the competition (W10 D3). The two sides have faced each other three times on a Wednesday in LaLiga with two wins for the Whites and one draw. 

Elche are winless in their last four home games in LaLiga (D2 L2). The last time they went on a longer winless such run was in February 2021 (P8 D5 L3). 

Roger Martí has failed to score for Elche in LaLiga this season (six games) but has scored four goals in his last eight games against Real Madrid in the top-flight. 

Pedro Bigas suffered a nasty clash of heads early on in that 2-2 draw at Mestalla, and was withdrawn amidst fears of concussion.

However, the 32-year-old has been training normally with the squad since the incident, and should be available for selection here.

Winger Fidel Chaves will miss out again due to a hamstring injury, but Gerard Gumbau will return to the squad after becoming a father on the weekend. Lucas Boye should also start up front, after serving a suspension.
