Eibar Prediction

Eibar sit in 11th spot and have had a reasonable season so far as they’ve avoided being dragged down to the lower reaches of the division so far this term, and having lost just once in their last eight matches overall in La Liga, the hosts should continue their solid progress here today.

The defeat came in a 1-0 defeat away at Athletic Bilbao, but recent wins against Espanyol, Girona and Celta Vigo have ensured their mid-table position along with taking points off Leganes, Sevilla, Getafe and Deportivo Alaves.

Eibar have therefore become a hard team to beat in recent times and with a solid home record of 7-5-2 25/15 under their belts so far in this campaign, they’ll be looking to add to their points tally in this clash.

The hosts are unbeaten in their last 10 matches at home and this includes a notable 3-0 win over Real Madrid as well as keeping six clean sheets from their 14 home matches to date. Forwards Charles (12 goals) and Enrich (6 goals) will be keen to fire their side to victory today.

 

Key-Facts – Eibar v Real Valladolid

  • Eibar are unbeaten in their last 10 home matches in La Liga
  • Eibar have kept 6 clean sheets at home so far this season
  • Real Valladolid are without an away win from their last 6 matches

 

Real Valladolid Prediction

Real Valladolid occupy 16th place on the La Liga ladder and find themselves just one point ahead of the relegation zone as they prepare for their trip to Eibar where the visitors will be desperate to avoid a fifth straight defeat in the Spanish top flight.

Recent defeats to Barcelona, Real Betis, Espanyol and Real Madrid have resulted in Real Valladolid nervously looking over their shoulders as they’re now dangerously close to the drop zone down to La Liga 2.

It’s actually six matches now without a win for Real Valladolid, and along with four defeats on the trot away from home too, the visitors look to be in a tight spot ahead of this clash at Eibar with an ordinary looking away record of 3-5-6 10/19 on the road so far this season.

Goals have been hard to come by for Valladolid on the road this season and only second from bottom outfit Rayo Vallecano (9 goals) have scored fewer goals on their travels than today’s visitors.

Real Valladolid have failed to score in 7 of their 14 away matches so far this season.

Betting Tips Verdict

Eibar have made themselves hard to beat, and given Real Valladolid’s poor results away from home so far this season, Eibar look set for another win here.
