Real Madrid is set to face Elche in an exciting La Liga matchup on Sunday, November 23, at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT). The match, which will take place at the Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero, finds Real Madrid keen to bounce back from a recent disappointing stretch following a goalless draw with Rayo Vallecano and a narrow loss to Liverpool in the Champions League. With Barcelona gaining ground, securing a win is critical for Xabi Alonso’s team as they strive for a 37th La Liga title.
Elche, newly promoted from the Segunda Division, has struggled in their first season back in the top flight, failing to win any of their last seven La Liga matches. Their current form poses a tough challenge against a Real Madrid squad that boasts the best away record in the league, having earned 13 points from six matches on the road this season.
