Elche-Real Madrid: aiming for victory at the Martínez Valero

There are two matches remaining, both away, before the first international break of the season, and Real Madrid will play the first of them tonight at the Martínez Valero (9:30 pm CEST; Orange TV and Movistar LaLiga). The goal against Elche is to continue adding victories at the start of the competition.

This initial stretch of matches will conclude on Sunday at the Metropolitano. But before focusing on the derby, our team will aim for their fifth league victory against an opponent who will rely on the support of their fans to keep earning points in the championship.

"Against Elche, I would like to play well and win," said Mourinho during the pre-match press conference. For this match, our coach has these players in the squad. Mbappé is included, who after the brace against Rayo at the Bernabéu has scored seven goals in the six official matches played by Real Madrid this season.

Our opponent comes into the match after earning a point at San Mamés last Saturday (1-1). The team led by Martín Anselmi, who is in his first season as Elche's coach, starts this sixth matchday with a record of two draws and three defeats.
