Eibar and Real Valladolid do battle in vital La Liga clash
SD Eibar vs Real Valladolid - 13/02/2021
1689
The fight for La Liga survival will be a tough one this season, with just four points separating 12th place Valencia from Real Valladolid in 18th place. Even some teams in the top half of the table could get still be embroiled in the fight for survival.
Two of the teams right in the relegation dogfight at the bottom of La Liga are Eibar and Real Valladolid, who meet on meet on Saturday afternoon at the Estadio Municipal de Ipurua.
The pair are level on points and only a superior head-to-head record has the home side above the 18th place visitors. With so little between the two teams, this game could be pivotal to the success of the two teams fortunes at the end of the campaign.
The home side’s recent form in the Spanish top-flight has been poor of late, as they have failed to win in five league outings while suffering four defeats in the process.
A leaky defence has been their downfall of late, as the home team has now conceded at least two goals in four of their last five outings in La Liga.
At the other end of the pitch, they have failed to score in just one of their previous ten league outings.
Similarly to the home team, Real Valladolid have also failed to win in five La Liga outings, while winning just once in nine games.
Another similarity is they have been poor defensively, conceding at least two goals in three of their last four matches in La Liga.
The recent record in games between these two teams tells a story of the two teams being equal, as from their last six meetings both teams have won twice and the other two games have finished all-square.
With such a small difference between the pair in the table, it is no surprise that Forebet predicts that this clash will finish all-square too.
