The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with a round of midweek fixtures this week as Elche lock horns with Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid side at the Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero on Wednesday.

Elche vs Real Madrid Preview

Elche are currently rooted to the bottom of the La Liga standings and have struggled to cope with the rigors of the top flight this season. The home side held Valencia to an admirable 2-2 draw over the weekend and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been impressive so far this season. Los Blancos picked up an important 3-1 victory against arch-rivals Barcelona in their previous game and will need to avoid an upset this week.
