Player(s) to watch:

• Federico Valverde has now rescued Real Madrid in both of his last two appearances. He first scored a match-winning goal in the final moments against Celta Vigo, then dismantled Manchester City’s defence after scoring a sensational hat-trick in the UEFA Champions League. With the ball at his feet, he is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence.

• Rafa Mir is going to be one of the main men in the attacking front for Elche CF. Even though he has not been in top form recently, Rafa Mir is still going to be an important aspect in the final third for the visitors. In 22 LaLiga appearances this season, he has scored seven goals.
