With their 11 point advantage in the league table, Granada fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against SD Eibar.

The visiting SD Eibar played their last game only three days ago, a La Liga match.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 800 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Granada form and stats

9 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Granada have to build on here at Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes in the La Liga.

Stress levels are on the rise for Granada's attacking players as they have now played 180 minutes without scoring in a league game. Soldado was their last goal scorer.

Granada shared the glory with Leganes in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Preceding that match was a defeat to Villarreal (0-1).

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 Granada have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eleven matches with the results: Won nine, drawn zero and lost two.

Granada are traveling soon after this match as the La Liga match at Deportivo Alaves awaits in three days.

The Granada fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. From these home matches, Granada have conceded only 10 goals.

SD Eibar form and stats

There's been little loot from SD Eibar's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 15 away games in the La Liga. SD Eibar only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 6 draws.

Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Valencia in their previous game. A 1-1 draw at Getafe's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with SD Eibar playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were zero SD Eibar wins, three draws and two defeats.

A new game in only four days for Eibar, the La Liga home match versus Osasuna. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 15 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Eibar struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 25 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the SD Eibar - Granada 3-0 earlier this season. Numbers for the last seven meetings between these two teams are: zero wins for Granada, two draws and five wins for SD Eibar. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
