Atletico Madrid – Elche

Match analysis

Atletico Madrid head into the clash as fourth‑placed leaders with ten points from five games, having scored ten and conceded six, while Elche languish in nineteenth with just two points, no wins and a 6‑13 goal record. The home side’s three victories and solitary draw give them a clear edge over the struggling visitors, who have yet to taste a win and sit three points clear of the relegation zone. Historically the gap between the two has been wide, and the current form suggests a comfortable night for the hosts. A win would push Atletico further into the European spots, whereas Elche will be desperate for any point to keep their survival hopes alive.
