Elche vs Real Madrid La Liga Tips, Prediction & Live Stream - Real set for more goals on the road
Real Madrid travel to face Elche in La Liga, with the hosts enduring a poor start to the season (winless in five, conceding 13 goals). Real are tipped to win both halves, leveraging Elche’s defensive frailties, and Turkish youngster Arda Guler is expected to play a significant role. Although Real’s defense has shown some vulnerability, Elche have managed to score in four of their five matches and could find the net again. The key prediction is a Real Madrid win (HT/FT), with Elche likely grabbing a consolation goal.

Elche vs Real Madrid La Liga Tips, Prediction & Live Stream
Elche are shipping goals and enduring poor starts to open the season, so Real Madrid are backed to be winning at half-time and full-time, with Turkish star Arda Guler potentially playing a starring role.
It's been a miserable start to the season for Elche after a summer of turmoil - they've gone winless across their opening five games, leaking 13 goals in the process. Slow starts have been a common theme, with Elche falling behind at the break in four of their five outings.
So there's your main play - Real winning at HT/FT.
However, for all their troubles, Elche can get on the scoresheet in defeat here.
Martin Anselmi's side have scored in four of their five games this season, along with their last two meetings with Real Madrid.
Real are unsurprisingly humming in attack, but their defence remains vulnerable - they were guilty of taking their foot off the pedal against Rayo Vallecano this past weekend and have now conceded in five of their six games in all competitions this season. They were also outplayed for large portions of their 2-1 Champions League win over Inter.
So Elche can find the back of the net, but Real simply have too much firepower. Jose Mourinho could potentially rest some players for this one with the Madrid derby coming up, but Arda Guler came off the bench against Vallecano and should be set for a start here. He's already had three goal involvements in five games in La Liga this term and can contribute to another in this one.
