Elche form and stats

Elche have only collected 6 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 1-3-9 (13 played).

Elche aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 180 league minutes without a goal. Morente was the last player to find the net.

Home advantage was not enough for Elche in their previous game as they lost hosting Barcelona, 0-4. Elche lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one. Defender Mascarell was the best team player with a rating of 7.51. Mascarell hit one key pass and won 5 of 6 duels.

Prior to that match, the Elche manager Beccacece faced defeat when travelling to Real Sociedad and losing 0-2.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Elche when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 4 matches with the visitors losing 1 time, drawing 0 and winning 3 games.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Elche as they have only managed to score 8 times from 13 away games in the league. The Elche manager Beccacece has some worries about the defense as 30 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Osasuna have put together a streak of 8 consecutive games without losing (2-6-0) when facing Elche.

This was the final score when the squads faced each other earlier this campaign; Elche - Osasuna 1-1. The matches between these teams have sometimes been aggressive, having seen 5 sending-offs from the last ten encounters.
