Elche form and stats

When playing at home, Elche have managed 6 wins, 6 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 15 games. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Elche after consecutive victories at their own ground.

The fans are hoping that Elche will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the La Liga 2 game against Real Zaragoza (placed 18th). Ahead of that match, Elche won a home game hosting Cadiz (1-0).

This is expected to be a close game, with Elche perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Elche as a small favourite), we find five games. Elche has won 1 of these, drawn 3 and lost 1. Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the La Liga 2 game versus Alcorcón in only zero days. This game is also played here at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero.

Elche aren't scoring a lot here at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero with only 15 goals from 15 games. The Elche fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 15 in 15 matches. Elche have only conceded 10 in these games.
