Elche vs Real Madrid Prediction: Looking forward to a productive match

In the last matchday, Real Madrid scored a vital win over Barcelona, putting the Blues back in first place in La Liga. And Benzema won the Ballon d'Or the other day. Real Madrid is in great spirits.

After nine games, Elche is the weakest team in La Liga, with zero wins and 21 conceded goals. It makes sense that the future hosts are quoted as the big outsiders for the upcoming game, despite the fielding factor. That said, it is worth noting that Elche hasn't lost in their last two games, drawing against Mallorca at home and Valencia away. However, current Real Madrid is more vital than those teams, so we doubt the hosts have a chance for a minimal defeat.

Madrid isn't only the league leader after a 3:1 win against FC Barcelona; they have the best offensive game in the league. In the last nine rounds, Real Madrid has scored 22 goals or 2.44 goals per game. The away team also has the best statistics in the division, with five wins in five games on a 12:4 goal difference. As you can see, the field factor has no impact on the result. Naturally, the league leader will do everything they can to retain first place and inflict a comfortable defeat on Elche.

Real Madrid has beaten Celtic, Espanyol, and Celta FC at home this season with a handicap (-1.5). Any of these teams is stronger than Elche; there is nothing to argue about. If Madrid can play to at least 75%-80% of its potential, they will undoubtedly pull off a comfortable away win against the La Liga outsider. Also, let's note that we expect a productive match.
