Venue: Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa (7083 seats)

Season ticket holders at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua haven't seen too many victories this season, with SD Eibar languishing in the 15th position so far. The guesting Real Betis will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Real Betis have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

SD Eibar manager J. Mendilibar Etxebarria and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Celta de Vigo (placed 18th) in the La Liga. Heartbreak before that as SD Eibar lost 1-3 at CD Badajoz's place.

The SD Eibar fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 10 matches. SD Eibar have conceded 15 from these games.

Before that, Real Betis travelled to Rayo Vallecano and returned home with a draw after the Copa Del Rey game finished 2-2.
