SD Eibar form and stats

SD Eibar have played 14 La Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-1-7 (wins-draws-losses). SD Eibar are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa, having lost their two previous games here.

SD Eibar's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Real Sociedad (placed 4th). Before that game, the home loss against Mallorca with the scoreline 1-2.

The penalty miss from Fabián Orellana in the defeat against Real Sociedad was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

SD Eibar are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 14 games. On the other hand, SD Eibar have conceded 20 goals.
