Previous meetings: 53

Elche wins: 6

Draws: 12

Real Madrid and Elche have locked horns on 53 previous occasions, and it would be fair to say that the former have enjoyed the better of them, boasting 35 wins and only suffering six defeats, while there have also been 12 draws between the two teams currently operating in Spain's top flight.

The last meetings between the two teams came during the 2022-23 La Liga season, with Real Madrid winning 4-0 at Bernabeu and 3-0 at the Estadio Martínez Valero.

Elche actually held Real Madrid to a 2-2 draw at Bernabeu in January 2022, while the last draw between the two teams at the Estadio Martinez Valero was a 1-1 in December 2020.

The promoted outfit have not managed to overcome Los Blancos since March 1978, though, recording a 3-1 victory on home soil on that occasion.

All six of Elche's wins over Real Madrid have come at home, while their biggest defeat to the capital giants was an 11-2 reverse back in February 1960.

Ferenc Puskas is actually the all-time leading goalscorer in games between Real Madrid and Elche, scoring 17 times in this fixture during his time in a Los Blancos shirt.
