SD Eibar form and stats

SD Eibar's struggle is real here at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa with only 7 points collected from 11 La Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-4-6. The Eibar manager J. Mendilibar Etxebarria might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

The fans are hoping that Eibar will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the La Liga game against Osasuna (placed 15th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Sevilla (0-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Eibar have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won six times, drawn one and lost two.

SD Eibar has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 5 goals from 11 games. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, SD Eibar have conceded 12 goals.
