Elche will need to evaluate the fitness of defender Pedro Bigas, who was forced off during the match against Barcelona. Aside from this concern, the home team is in strong shape ahead of their La Liga fixture against Real Sociedad.
Pena; Nunez, Affengruber, Bigas, Pedrosa; Valera, Febas, Aguado, Neto, Mir; Silva
Remiro; Aramburu, Zubeldia, Martin, Gomez; Guedes, Mendez, Gorrotxategi, Soler, Barrenetxea; Oyarzabal
"Andre Silva and Rafa Mir have scored four times each this season and will again both feature in the final third of the field."
"Mikel Oyarzabal is Real Sociedad's leading goalscorer this season, finding the back of the net on four occasions."
Summary: Both teams face some injury challenges but are expected to field strong lineups with key forwards leading the attack in this La Liga match.
