Matías Dituro
ELC
Concedes three for second straight
Dituro made three saves and allowed three goals in Monday's 3-2 loss against Real Sociedad.
Analysis: Dituro shipped three goals for the second consecutive match, pushing his total to 11 conceded over his last three outings as his difficult start to the season continues. He allowed just 29 goals in 22 starts last season, but with Elche struggling defensively at this pace, that number appears set to be broken. Dituro will aim to turn things around when he is next in action on Saturday against Athletic.
Makes critical error
Dituro recorded three saves and allowed three goals in Friday's 3-2 loss versus Racing Santander.
Analysis: Dituro made a judgement error just outside his box, allowing the opposition to net the opener. He was also at fault for the third goal, as he was unable to parry the ball safely despite the shot being directly at him. He has now conceded nine goals in the opening three games this campaign. Next, he takes on Real Sociedad.
Battered by Barca
Dituro allowed five goals while making two saves during Sunday's 5-0 loss to Barcelona.
Analysis: Dituro allowed two goals in the first half and three in the second as Elche dropped all three points Sunday. The keeper has allowed six goals while combining for four saves through the opening two La Liga matches this season. Elche head to Racing Santander on Friday.
Holds on for draw
Dituro allowed a goal while making two saves during Monday's 1-1 draw with Deportivo.
Analysis: Dituro allowed the opening goal of the match in the 21st minute, but held Deportivo from there as Elche came from behind for a point. The keeper will find things more difficult next time out in a home clash against Barcelona.
Starts in Toulouse friendly
Dituro (shoulder) is in the starting squad for Saturday's friendly against Toulouse, according to the club.
Analysis: Dituro's return to the starting lineup confirms he has fully recovered from the shoulder injury suffered in the earlier friendly win over Kaizer Chiefs, which had marked the only sour note of manager Martin Anselmi's debut as Elche coach. His involvement in this match is a positive sign as he continues building toward the new 2026/27 La Liga season in goal for Elche.
Trains fully with squad
Dituro (shoulder) has trained with the rest of his teammates on Monday, according to Javi Teruel of Diario AS.
Analysis: Dituro's return to full training is an encouraging sign after the shoulder injury he suffered in the win over Kaizer Chiefs, which had marked the only sour note of manager Martin Anselmi's debut as Elche coach. His involvement suggests the issue was not serious, positioning him to continue building toward the two friendlies this week against Al Ain and Cordoba as Elche's preseason progresses.
Suffers shoulder injury
Dituro was substituted after picking up a shoulder injury in Saturday's preseason win over Kaizer Chiefs, marking the only sour note in manager Martin Anselmi's debut as Elche coach, according to David Esteve of AS.
Analysis: Dituro finished last season as one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the relegation battle, recording four clean sheets and 64 saves across 22 La Liga appearances as Elche secured survival on the final day. His shoulder issue is a new concern to monitor heading into the new season, and further details on the severity of the injury should emerge as Elche continues its preseason preparations under the new coaching staff.
Six saves in draw
Dituro had six saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Girona.
Analysis: Dituro delivered his finest performance of the season in Saturday's 1-1 draw at Girona on the final day of the La Liga campaign, making six saves across 90 minutes to deny the hosts the win they needed to avoid relegation. The Argentine goalkeeper proved decisive in a match that confirmed Elche's top-flight status, with the draw enough to secure survival while Girona dropped to the second division. Dituro ends the 2025-26 season with four clean sheets, 29 goals conceded and 64 saves across 22 La Liga appearances, establishing himself as one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the relegation battle and a key reason his side survived against the odds.
Registers clean sheet
Dituro made no saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Getafe.
Analysis: Dituro recorded one clearance, made 39 passes, and secured his fourth clean sheet of the campaign. He has now accumulated seven saves and one clearance across the last four games, conceding six times. Next, he takes on Girona in a critical game to determine relegation, with Elche and Girona currently 17th and 18th respectively, level on points.
Beaten twice in loss
Dituro recorded three saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat versus Betis.
Analysis: There wasn't much Dituro could've done on the two goals he conceded. Elche have one of the worst defenses in LaLiga, meaning the veteran goalkeeper won't carry a lot of fantasy upside in most formats. Dituro should remain in the XI ahead of the weekend matchup against Getafe.
Gives up goal Saturday
Dituro recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Deportivo Alaves.
Analysis: This was Dituro's fourth consecutive game without keeping a clean sheet, though at least he's limited the damage to just two goals conceded in two of those starts. The veteran goalkeeper isn't the most reliable fantasy option since Elche have had a plethora of defensive issues all season long, though.
Allows three in loss
Dituro registered one save and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-1 loss to Celta Vigo.
Analysis: Dituro made just one save from four Celta Vigo shots on goal Sunday as Elche fell in a 3-1 road defeat. Across his last five starting appearances, the experienced keeper has made 15 saves and four clearances while conceding seven goals and recording one clean sheet. Dituro will be aiming for a bounce-back performance Saturday when Elche hosts Deportivo Alaves.
Concedes one
Dituro had two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory versus Oviedo.
Analysis: Dituro made three clearances and conceded a goal in the 76th minute. He has now totaled 14 saves and four clearances in the last four games. His next match is against Celta Vigo, who have scored only once in their last three games and lost all three.
Allows two goals
Dituro had one save and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 3-2 win against Atletico Madrid.
Analysis: Dituro was fortunate to not allow a third goal, which was also potentially due to Atletico Madrid being down a man for an hour. The goalkeeper only made one save, and he'll likely not have much work in the next match against Oviedo. The cellar dwellers have only scored 24 goals in 31 domestic games.
