Eibar Prediction
Eibar sit in 10th place in La Liga and a win tonight would see the hosts jump into 7th spot so there’s plenty of incentive for the hosts to do well against Getafe here on Friday night. The hosts bring a four match unbeaten sequence into this clash having secured wins against Espanyol and Girona (both at home) along with points taken off Leganes and Sevilla, both away from home and both ending in 2-2 draws.
Eibar’s home form has been pretty steady in this campaign which is just as well as they’ve managed to record just one away win all season to date, but at their Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa, the hosts have posted a home record of 6-4-2 22/13 so far this term.
Eibar are unbeaten in their last 8 home matches in La Liga which includes wins over Deportivo Alaves, Real Madrid (3-0) and the aforementioned wins against Espanyol and Girona. They’ve kept five clean sheets while forwards Charles (10 goals) and Enrich (5 goals) lead the way up front.
- Eibar are unbeaten in their last 8 home matches in La Liga
- Getafe have won just 1 of their last 7 away matches
- Getafe have drawn the most matches away from home in La Liga
Getafe Prediction
Getafe sit in 5th spot and currently therefore occupy a Europa League spot ahead of their trip to Eibar this Friday night, but like their hosts, they owe their current league position largely to results at home which have seen Getafe record six of their total of nine wins so far this season at their Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
Overall results recently have produced mixed results as they’ve collected three wins from their last seven matches which were gained against Villarreal, Deportivo Alaves and Celta Vigo, with the latter two victories being recorded on home turf.
Getafe have been a little more circumspect away form home though as they’ve registered just one win from their last seven matches on their travels which was the win at Villarreal, amidst an overall away record of 3-7-2 12/12.
As you can see, Getafe’s results on the road have been dominated by the draw and no other team in La Liga has been involved in more draws away from home than Getafe so far this season.
Betting Tips Verdict
Eibar’s recent form at home suggests they’ll be hard to break down while Getafe have tended to deal in draws away from home this season, so it’s worth keeping the draw on-side here. Back the hosts and give the handicap.
