Elche v Real Madrid live: Text commentary updates, goals and stats

Real Madrid will look to return to winning ways when they visit Elche on Sunday.

Xabi Alonso’s side have enjoyed a strong start to the season but went into the international break on the back of a Champions League defeat at Liverpool and a frustrating La Liga draw at Rayo Vallecano.

The stalemate at Vallecas saw their lead at the top of the table cut to three points over Barcelona.

Elche are 11th and unbeaten in six league home games in 2025/26.
