Eibar vs Alaves
Spain – LaLiga
Date: Sunday, 24 November 2019
Kick-off at 15:00 UK / 16:00 CET
Venue: Estadio Municipal de Ipurua (Eibar).
This is no more than half an hour by road through the beautiful Basque countryside from Eibar to Vitoria-Gasteiz and while this is not the largest of the Basque derby, there should be an extra edge to the game. It was not least because both sides found themselves hovering above the relegation scrap with an identical record 15 points from 13 games.
Victory for either really would catapult them to the top of the standings and with home advantage Eibar will be the favorite to get it. They have won 4 of their last eight games to recover from a slow start to the season and it was a better record when you consider they've hosted both Barcelona and Real Madrid during that period. They lose weight but have won 3 of 4 games on their other league event in Ipurua this term.
One glance at Alaves' away record this term should offer to host a lot of reasons for this. Asier Garitano man has become miserable on the road, taking just one point from their six away games, the second-worst record in the division. Garitano has earned a reputation for making his team a defensive holding and the fact that Alaves an average of 2.67 goals per game conceded many would concern him greatly.
