Match begins: 20:00 (UTC)
Venue: Ipurua Municipal Stadium (7083 seats)

SD Eibar hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 16 points and a 16th position in the La Liga table. Visiting Granada holds 9th place with 24 pts.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

It's quite the trip for Granada when visiting SD Eibar as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.

SD Eibar form and stats

3 victories, 0 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what SD Eibar have to build on here at Ipurua Municipal Stadium in the La Liga. Three consecutive losses here at Ipurua Municipal Stadium is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Stress levels are on the rise for SD Eibar's attacking players as they have now played 235 minutes without scoring in a league game. P. Diop was their last goal scorer.

SD Eibar are returning here after visiting SD Logrones in a Copa Del Rey game and winning with a 5-0 scoreline. Before that, SD Eibar played out a La Liga draw 0-0 when visiting Athletic Club.

As mentioned above, SD Eibar "killed" SD Logrones in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. P. De Blasis was absolutely essential when SD Eibar beat SD Logrones 5-0, scoring 3 goals.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does SD Eibar handle that role? We have found eleven games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W7-D1-L3.

SD Eibar are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 8 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 15 goals have been conceded.

Granada form and stats

There's been little loot from Granada's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the La Liga. Granada only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws. A depressing four defeats in a row for Granada in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Real Valladolid.

Granada play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting L'Hospitalet. A loss against Levante was the result prior to that, in a La Liga home game.

What a finish in the last match, as Granada came back from being down 0-2 and secured all three points through A. Ramos in the 96th minute.

We have checked recent matches where Granada have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were W3-D1-L4.

The travelling fans enjoy Granada's attacking play in away games, having scored 13 goals in 8 league matches away. The Granada manager Diego Martínez has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last six meetings: 4 - 2 - 0 (SD Eibar wins - draws - Granada wins). As for goals, 4 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 2 had two or less.
