Elche form and stats

There's been little loot from Elche's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 17 away games in the La Liga. Elche only have 4 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 3 draws.

Elche delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Osasuna (placed 9th) in their previous match. The draw against Osasuna came from a losing position. The Elche manager Vílchez brought on Milla as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level. Midfield player Gumbau was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.41/10. Gumbau served one assist, hit two key passes and had 32 successful passes (of 37 total).

Preceding that game was the away victory against Real Betis with the score of 1-0.

Elche are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, two draws and five defeats. From a total of ten matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Elche are hosting Atletico Madrid in the La Liga only four days away.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Elche as they have only managed to score 16 times from 17 away games in the league. As for defending, Elche rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 27 goals from these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
