SD Eibar form and stats

SD Eibar's results here at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa in the La Liga have been very modest with 1 victory, 6 draws and 8 defeats. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 16 attempts. With seven home La Liga games in a row without a win, the SD Eibar fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Granada game long ago, can be stopped today.

Eibar's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Real Sociedad (placed 5th). Prior to that, an away loss at Granada.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Eibar have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won four, drawn five and lost three.

Deportivo Alavés form and stats

Deportivo Alavés have only collected 11 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 2-5-9 (16 played). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

Alavés has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Valencia for a La Liga game that ended a draw (1-1). A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Villarreal.

The draw against Valencia came from a losing position. The Alavés manager J. Calleja Revilla brought on John Guidetti as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.
