Real Madrid vs Elche Prediction & Tips – Elche to Score a Consolation Goal in La Liga
Elche, currently the worst away team in La Liga, have surprisingly missed scoring only once in their last ten away games. Real Madrid aims to capitalize on this by securing a victory to maintain their title chase, but a clean sheet may be unlikely given Elche's recent scoring record. The recommendation suggests backing Real Madrid to win, albeit conceding at least one goal.
- Elche is the worst away team in the league but score often
- We are backing Los Blancos to win here with BTTS
- Check our preview for Real Madrid vs Elche below
Elche looked solid offensively last weekend against Villarreal, missing two huge chances to level the game (lost 2-1). Still, they are the worst performing road team in La Liga, so I see value in backing home win & BTTS.

Elche Held Los Blancos to a Draw Earlier This Season
Real Madrid have a 35-6 advantage against Elche in their 54 head to head matches, 13 games ending without a winner.
Real Returned to Winning Ways Last Friday
Real Madrid are coming off an inspiring 3-0 home victory against Manchester City in the Champions League where Federico Valverde scored a hat-trick in the first half, securing huge advantage ahead of the second leg.
Speaking of their La Liga campaign, Los Blancos had two big setbacks recently, losing to Osasuna 2-1 and Getafe 1-0, while being lucky to claim a 2-1 road win against Celta Vigo last weekend, Valverde scoring the winner in the 94th minute.
Alvaro Arbeloa’s side is currently 2nd in the Spanish top flight with 63 points after 27 rounds, four points behind the leaders Barcelona.
Elche Carry Decent Scoring Potential
Elche haven’t won a single match since mid-December, which caused them to drop down to 17th place, just one point above Mallorca who are sitting inside the relegation zone.
They started this month with a thriller 2-2 home draw against Espanyol, barely salvaging a point thanks to Rafael Mir’s stoppage time equalizer.
Last weekend, Eder Sarabia’s side conceded two times in the first half against Villarreal and couldn’t recover, losing 2-1 while posting 1.22-1.78 xG, holding 63% possession and firing 13-16 shots.
Predicted Lineups & Team News
Real Madrid (4-3-1-2) Thibaut Courtois; Dani Carvajal, Raul Asencio, Dean Huijsen, Fran Garcia; Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni; Arda Guler; Vinicius Junior, Brahim Diaz
Ferland Mendy, Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo, Eder Militao, David Alaba and Alvaro Carreras are injured for the home side.
Elche (3-4-1-2) Matias Dituro; Victor Chust, David Affengruber, Leo Petrot; Josan, Aleix Febas, Marc Aguado, German Valera; Martim Neto; Andre Silva, Alvaro Rodriguez
Elche can’t count on Hector Fort, Pedro Bigas and John Donald due to injuries.
Verdict
Elche are the worst away team in La Liga, but missed to score just once in their last ten outings. I am backing Real Madrid to keep their title hopes alive by winning here, but not with a clean sheet.
