Elche form and stats

Elche have collected 21 points from their La Liga 2 home games so far after 5-6-4.

A strong away win for Elche against Rayo Vallecano the last match, as Dani Escriche, Pere Milla and Oscar Regano were on target. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Numancia in a game that was won 2-0.

Edgar Badia loved the game against Rayo Vallecano. With a stunning seven saves the goalkeeper played a huge part in the 3-2 victory.

Extremadura UD form and stats

There's been little loot from Extremadura UD's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 15 away games in the La Liga 2. Extremadura UD only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 6 draws. One point away has become something of a habit for Extremadura who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Extremadura find the net regularly in their away games. 15 goals from 15 away fixtures in the league. As opposed to that, Extremadura have seen the ball go into their own net 22 times on the road.
