Elche form and stats

There's been little loot from Elche's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 13 away games in the La Liga. Elche only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

There might be some fixture complaints from Elche as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the La Liga match against Real Madrid (1-2). Before that, Elche secured a home win against Sevilla with the score 2-1.

Elche were so close to getting something from the game against Real Madrid, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime.

You'll want to know how Elche managed when outsiders such as today. Our database found one similar match resulting in zero away wins, one draw and zero home wins.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Elche manager F. Escriba Segura as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Getafe.

The visitors have scored 11 goals from 13 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Elche struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 21 goals conceded from these games.
