Elche performed well in the Segunda Division last season. In the end, the team won the league runner-up with a record of 22 wins, 11 draws and 9 losses, and won a place to go directly to the La Liga. In terms of recent situation, Elche participated in 8 friendly matches during the offseason, and the team achieved a record of 4 wins and 4 losses, and their overall preparations were average; however, they had a record of winning all the games in the last two friendly matches, and both scored their opponents without any loss during the period, and their competitive state still improved. However, from the perspective of the matchup, Elche lost all the two previous La Liga matches against Real Betis, and during the period, he was given three goals by his opponents in a single game.

Last season, they achieved 7 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in 19 leagues away games, with a winning rate of less than 40%.

This game: Although Real Betis' performance in friendly matches is not ideal, their strength on paper is still far stronger than the newly promoted Elche.
