STADIUM – Ipurua

COMPETITION – La Liga

#EibarGetafe


This match offers Getafe the chance to break into the top four. 3 points would do just that and it would lay down a real signal of their intent to challenge for not just Europa League football but possibly even Champions League action next term. Eibar aren’t too far off the European picture either and this should be a competitive game between two sides who continue to punch above their weight.

Eibar have never failed to better their previous season’s finishing position since they joined the Primera Division in 2014. 8th is the target this year if they are to keep that run going and you wouldn’t bet against José Luis Mendilibar’s side finishing that high. They are a well-organised side but there is attacking quality there, not least in the shape of in-form Charles who averages better than a goal every 100 minutes in La Liga this term, a ratio many of the world’s elite strikers would struggle to match.

Getafe have also been in the goals though despite their defensive reputation. Jaime Mata and Jorge Molina are forming a very dangerous partnership and the rest of the team remains solid which suggests they may very well keep their strong campaign going. They bounced back well from their painful Copa del Rey exit and the aftermath of that with victory over Celta Vigo last time out so they take momentum into this.

Neither of these sides do anything particularly fancy with a 4-4-2 formation and styles that could be viewed as direct. There is a bit more to both teams than that but certainly we can expect this game to get physical at times and it’s a tough one to call with both sides looking pretty solid right now.

Eibar vs Getafe Predictions

Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw

Betting Tip: Draw @ 3.25 with Spin Palace Sports

Overall, it’s very hard to pick a winner. Getafe are experts at grinding out results on the road with only the two Madrid giants managing to beat them at home in La Liga so far this season. They’ve been drawing plenty and they’d probably take a repeat here. Eibar are the favourites but Getafe’s centre-backs are well equipped to deal with their crossing game and all in all a tight, even contest looks likely with the draw perhaps the most likely outcome.
