Eibar
DDDDLW
Eibar will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 0-2 La Liga 2 victory vs Granada.
In that match, Eibar had 44% possession and 17 attempts at goal with 7 on target. For Eibar, the goals were scored by José Corpas (61') and Jon Guruzeta (68'). For their opponents, Granada got 16 shots on goal with 3 of them on target.
It has not been often in recent games that Eibar have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Eibar have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 7 goals along the way. Historical results aside, we must now wait to see if the trend will be sustained in this next game.

The numbers tell their own story, and Burgos have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 8 goals in total. At the back, Burgos have clearly had some problems.

ℹ️
Team News: Eibar
We think that Armeros may well kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system for this one, utilising Jonmi Magunagoitia, Sergio Cubero, Álvaro Carrillo, A. Zabala Arbilla, Cristian Gutiérrez, Sergio Alvarez Diaz, Matheus Pereira, José Corpas, Javi Martinez, Jon Guruzeta and Antonio Puertas.
🗞️
Team News: Burgos
From a largely healthy group, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Burgos manager Luis Ramis to contend with. Kévin Appin (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action.
It’s our belief that Burgos will likely elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation, going with A. C. Armendariz, Anderson Arroyo, Aitor Córdoba, Grego Sierra, Florian Miguel, Iván Morante, Miguel Angel Atienza, David González, Curro, Álex Sancris and Fernando Niño.
💭
Prediction
Our assessment is that Burgos have it within them to find the back of the net against this Eibar lineup, although it is unlikely to be enough to avoid a loss.
We reckon that it will be a narrow 2-1 winning score for Eibar at full-time. It will be interesting to see how this one goes.
