On Tuesday night, Eibar host Real Sociedad at the Estadio Municipal de Ipurua, in a game that could prove pivotal at both ends of La Liga.
Eibar are currently in the perilous position of 16th place in La Liga, just two points clear of the relegation zone. A record of just three wins in their last 14 matches in the Spanish top-flight is certainly relegation form.
More recently a 2-1 defeat at fellow strugglers Mallorca last time out means that the home side has claimed just one victory from their last six outings in La Liga.
A lack of goals has been a big problem for Jose Mendilibar’s team this season, as only four teams have scored fewer goals in La Liga. At the other end of the pitch, the fact that they have conceded at least twice in three of their last four games has hindered their hopes of escaping the relegation battle.
Eibar’s recent La Liga record on home soil has been inconsistent this season. However, the defeat against Real Mallorca ended a four-game unbeaten run on home soil for Eibar in the Spanish top-flight.
