On Thursday, December 29, Elche and Atletico Madrid will face off in a Spanish La Liga matchup at the Wanda Metropolitano. The team led by Diego Simeone will attempt to maintain the momentum of their five victories over the visitors.
On Tuesday, Atletico defeated CD Arenteiro 3-1 in a Copa del Rey second-round matchup away from home. They have scored nine goals and given up three in their last three competitive games. The Rojiblancos will now turn their attention to La Liga, where they are fifth in the standings with 24 points from 14 games after a three-game losing streak.
Elche, on the other hand, beat Guadalajara comfortably 3-0 to advance to the Copa del Rey’s third round. Prior to that, they had lost two games in a row, losing to Leeds United and KRC Genk in consecutive friendly matches. Elche returns to La Liga, where they are winless and in the bottom half of the table, and manager Pablo Machin will be hoping that the cup victory can serve as a springboard for a good run of form.
