Elche take on the visitors Real Madrid in the round 10 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 19th at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero (Elche).
Elche has already managed to change the coach. The"Green-striped" gave several surprises in a row. First, an incredible promotion in LaLiga (after an almost accidental 6th place in the Segunda and success in the playoffs), then - survival there, and in the last temporade even a jump to 13th place. Everyone even began to remove the label of one of the main underdogs from the team, and then tehy began to justify skepticism, sinking to the bottom of the table. After 5 defeats in a row, the coach, Francisco, was fired. He was replaced by Alberto Gallego, who as a musician was almost more famous than a coach. But for starters, he managed to interrupt the series of defeats by drawing with Mallorca (and after Ponce's 2nd goal of the season, the team led for a long time). Moreover, in the last round, it turned out to take points from Valencia at the Mestalla - Milyu answered the same to Cavani's double.

Real Madrid are much more accustomed to such a schedule. Los Blancos constantly play in the mode of 2 matches a week. This season they already had the UEFA Super Cup (with a victory over Eintracht), and 4 rounds in the Champions League (after 3 wins, they pulled out a draw in Poland with Donetsk Shakhtar due to a goal by Rudiger in the last minute). But it is also worth remembering that only last Saturday, Carlo Ancelotti's wards had, perhaps, the most high-profile fight of the whole autumn - "El Clasico". At home, the "galacticos" took Barcelona, which came to face-to-face meeting nose to nose, breaking away from the "peloton". And they put their opponent in their place: as a result, Real defeated the Catalans with a confident score of 3-1, breaking away from them by 3 points.
It seems to be impossible even to compare the potential of Elche and Real Madrid. But in both recent championships, the "green-striped" took a draw with the grandee, and in the cup they lost to the "galacticos" only in extra time. It is clear that Real should win, the question is how. In general, an offer with a handicap of "-1.5 goals" looks like a good option.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to win with -1.5 handicap.
