📊 Form Guide
Eibar
DLDDLL ⚠
Eibar will be looking for an improved result here following the 1-0 La Liga 2 loss in their previous game against Racing de Santander.
In that match, Eibar managed 66% possession and 20 attempts on goal with 3 on target. At the other end, Racing Santander had 6 shots on goal with 3 on target. Iñigo Vicente (43') was the scorer for Racing de Santander.
It’s been seldom in recent times that Eibar have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Eibar have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 8 goals on the way. That kind of trend isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, though.
Coming into this clash, Eibar are without a home win in the past 4 league games. Things will have to change soon.

🗞️ Team News: Eibar
There is just the lone fitness concern for the Eibar boss Gaizka Garitano to be concerned with from an otherwise fully-primed group. Imanol García de Albéniz (Achilles tendon rupture) is out of contention.
It looks as if Armeros will probably go for a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one featuring Luca Zidane, Á. T. Sacristán, Frederico Venancio, Juan Berrocal, A. Zabala Arbilla, Peru Nolaskoain, Matheus Pereira, José Corpas, Stoichkov, Yanis Rahmani and Jon Bautista.
📰 Team News: Sporting Gijón
Thanks to a completely healthy squad available to select from, the Sporting Gijón manager Miguel Ángel Ramírez has zero fitness concerns at all ahead of this match.
We believe Rojiblancos seem most likely to play in a 4-4-2 lineup, starting Ivan Cuellar, Carlos Izquierdoz, Guille Rosas, Bruno González, Diego Sánchez, Aitor Garcia, Pedro Díaz Fanjul, Jonathan Varane, Dani Queipo, Uros Djurdjevic and Juan Ferney Otero.
✨ Prediction
Eibar are likely to have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals.
Conversely, Sporting Gijón might well find it a difficult task to score themselves although we do see them managing to get on the scoresheet here.
We’re therefore anticipating a comfortable 3-1 win for Eibar at the end of this one.
