SD Eibar are welcoming Leganés for another important game after their 0-1 result against 4th-placed Sevilla.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Eibar and Leganés.

Relegation threatens Eibar who should definitely be looking for some points here. Leganés are struggling to avoid relegation.

SD Eibar form and stats

SD Eibar have collected 23 points from their La Liga home games so far after 7-2-8.

Stress levels are on the rise for Eibar's attacking players as they have now played 201 minutes without scoring in a league game. Kike was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager J. Mendilibar Etxebarria led his SD Eibar to a defeat in the La Liga match away at Sevilla. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa. Preceding that match was a defeat to Osasuna (0-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with SD Eibar perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with SD Eibar as a small favourite), we find five games. Eibar has won two of these, drawn two and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Eibar as they are travelling to their away game against Espanyol in the La Liga. That match is three days after this one.

The Eibar fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 17 matches. 24 goals have been conceded.

Leganés form and stats

Leganés have only collected 12 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 2-6-9 (17 played).

It's the second away game in a row for Leganés, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Espanyol (placed 20th) in the La Liga last time out. A loss against Sevilla was the result prior to that, in a home game.

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

A new game in only three days for Leganés, the La Liga home match versus Valencia. Busy days.

The attacking power of Leganés when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 17 league matches away. Leganés have conceded 25 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Leganés - SD Eibar 1-2. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - two - one (SD Eibar wins - draws - Leganés wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven had two or less.
