Elche vs Atletico Madrid Prediction (15.01.2025)

Elche is aiming for a return to the elite and has climbed to second place in the Segunda Division. Their form is good and they have not lost in their last 10 consecutive matches in all competitions. In the last five of them, they have not even conceded a goal, and in one of those matches, they beat Las Palmas 4-0 at home in the cup tournament. Definitely, the home fans have reason to be hopeful, especially since two years ago Elche won their last home game against Atletico 1-0 in La Liga.

The 1-0 win at home against Osasuna over the weekend returned Atletico Madrid to the top of La Liga. This seems fully deserved, considering they now have 14 consecutive wins in all competitions - a historic record for the club. A cup duel is upcoming, with Atletico facing teams from lower levels in the previous two rounds. However, there was definitely some underestimation then, and they did not pass through them convincingly.

Elche is in truly wonderful form and I think they are capable of causing problems for the leader in La Liga. Atletico's winning streak must come to an end at some point, but it wouldn't be surprising for them to deceive their opponent for another minimal victory.
