If you’re looking for stats, trends and analysis for Saturday’s showdown, you’ve certainly come to the right place. Read on to discover what Forebet’s algorithm predicts.

Real Valladolid suffered a 2-0 defeat against Racing Ferrol last weekend, managing a solitary attempt on target, with Cesar Tarrega seeing red late on.

Although Valladolid have lost two of their last three matches, they have avoided defeat in seven of their previous nine, remaining consistent on home soil.

Indeed, Valladolid are currently enjoying a four-game unbeaten streak at Estadio Jose Zorrilla, having kept a clean sheet in each of their previous three.

After suffering a solitary defeat in their last 13 home league games – achieving seven shutouts in that time – Valladolid will be confident of notching another positive result.

Meanwhile, Eibar claimed a 2-0 victory over Villarreal B last weekend, courtesy of goals from Sergio Leon and Jose Corpas.

The visitors have now won six of their previous 10 league matches, suffering only two defeats in the process, with both of those losses coming at home.

Eibar have impressed on the road of late, avoiding defeat in each of their last four away games, with two wins and two draws coming in that sequence.

It is also worth noting that Eibar have lost just three of their previous 12 away league outings, picking up six wins and three draws to strengthen their promotion push.

Head-to-head: In October, Eibar thrashed Real Valladolid 5-1 in the reverse fixture, with five different players getting on the scoresheet for the hosts.

That said, Eibar have won just three of their last 11 meetings with Valladolid, securing a solitary away victory during that period.

Team news: Real Valladolid will be without the suspended Cesar Tarrega on Sunday after the 22-year-end defender was sent off against Ferrol last weekend.

Eibar have reported no fresh injury problems ahead of Sunday’s clash, meaning Joseba Etxeberria could stick with the same XI that started last weekend’s win.

Although Eibar have impressed on their travels this season, Valladolid will back themselves to keep a fourth successive home clean sheet.

Forebet’s predictive analytics model expects Real Valladolid to achieve another shutout on Sunday, claiming all three points with a narrow victory.
