💰 Elche vs. Real Madrid best bet
Check out all of our soccer betting analysis and expert predictions this season.
Real Madrid -1.5 (-165)
Real Madrid have been dominant at home under manager Jose Mourinho, winning all three games by three or more goals at the Santiago Bernabéu. Now it’s time for them to prove they can be just as sharp on the road.
Tuesday’s trip to Elche is a perfect chance for Los Blancos to earn their second La Liga win on the road this season. Up against an Elche side toiling in 19th place, expect Real Madrid to overwhelm the strugglers with a fluid attack headed by Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe.
Score prediction: Real Madrid 3, Elche 0
📡 SBR Edge - Dominating the ball
Similar to their 4-0 win against newly promoted Malaga, we anticipate Real Madrid will dominate possession against a lowly Elche side that’s doomed to struggle to generate opportunities. After preventing Malaga from finding defensive cracks by dominating possession, Madrid will like their chances of executing a familiar game plan against an Elche team that struggles to hold its structural shape against elite teams.

Both teams to score: No (+105)
It’s going to be a long day at the office for Elche.
With just six goals scored across their opening five games of the season, it’s difficult to envision a scenario where Elche finds a way through a Madrid backline that’s among the best in Spain.
Even if they did make past Real Madrid’s defense, which has only conceded four goals in five games this season, the task doesn’t get any easier for Elche’s forwards against one of the world’s best goalkeepers, Thibaut Courtois.
Kylian Mbappe anytime goal (-250)
La Liga’s golden boot race is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in years, with four players tied in first with six goals through five games.
Despite the scoring race being wide open, few would be daring enough to overlook Real Madrid and France phenom Kylian Mbappe. After netting two against Rayo Vallecano to bring his tally to six, Mbappe is in a scoring groove that looks set to continue against one of the league’s worst defenses on Tuesday.
Expect Mbappe to get plenty of chances to add to his scoring haul against a defensive unit that - along with being winless at home - lacks the recovery speed to contain high-octane attacking schemes like Madrid’s.
