Spain – LaLiga
Date: Friday, 20 December 2019
Kick off at 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
Venue: Estadio Municipal de Ipurua.
After a hectic week action of the Copa del Rey and of course Clasico La Liga back on Friday night as Eibar face crunch home game against Granada. The Basque slipped against a real problem but a victory here would be a great host and will ensure they head into 2020 out of the relegation zone and potentially by as much as 5-point advantage in the bottom three.
It would be what the boss José Luis Mendilibar will be hoping for here and the omens are good with Eibar has fired a total of nine goals past 2 Granada in the last meeting in Ipurua. Eibar also hit five in midweek in the Copa del Rey by Pablo de Blasis nets 13-minute hat-trick and he may be in line for the league began here recall Basque has only one goal netted in their last five games in the Spanish top flight, also took only one point.
Granada was eight points better than Eibar in the standings at the moment and that's a significant advantage to have to get to the midpoint of the campaign. Diego Martinez will realize that his team still has a tough job to do though to assure themselves a second season at this level. They suffered a setback last weekend when they were beaten 2-1 at home by Levante and they have lost each of their last four away games.
In fairness, Granada has some road games really hard lately, but they will feel that not enough Ipurua fort at times lasted for Eibar in recent years. Indeed, 5 of 8 visitors this season has won and Eibar will be desperate to try and change their home form around and they might need if they are going to avoid a real relegation scrap this term.
Eibar vs Granada Predictions
To pile on even suffering, Granada has not secured the bragging rights in one of their last three visits here on the trot. Given that home advantage is always served as the upper hand for the hosts, Eibar is the front runner to go home with three points.
However, the home side have recorded back to back defeats in their past three matches here and has come out on top just three times in eight previous matches.
Thus, the safest punt in this one should be interesting bet.
Furthermore, the host has not looked sharp in the final third. They have failed to find the back of the net in four of their last five games here and so far come up with only eight to their tally so far.
Granada has not been faring well in their latest event and have made the return trip back without a consolation goal in their last two games to go.
Taking into account that both teams have struggled in the future, relying on the goal to be rare when the two sides lock horns Friday.
