Elche form and stats

Elche have collected 23 points from their La Liga home games so far after 6-5-5.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Elche, as their goalkeeper Edgar Badia Guardiola has completely shut out the opponents for 231 minutes in the La Liga.

A good away victory last time out for Elche, who won 1-0 against Real Betis (placed 5th). The victory against Real Betis came after Morente's winning goal. The Elche manager Vílchez was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 59th minute. The goalie Badía was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 7.62 out of ten. Badía topped it up with a clean sheet.

Ahead of that match, Elche won a home game hosting Mallorca (3-0).

The Elche fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 16 matches. Elche have conceded 17 in these home matches.

Osasuna form and stats

Playing away, Osasuna have won 7 games, drawn 2 and suffered 7 defeats in the La Liga this season.

The manager Elustondo was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue Estadio El Sadar. Osasuna suffered a 1-3 loss to Real Madrid (placed 1st).
