Eibar vs Villarreal Prediction & Betting tips
All the ingredients for a wonderful football match with plenty of spectacle are present at the Ipurua on Thursday evening. Eibar usually does very well for its own public, but with Villarreal it is one of the most scoring teams of the moment!
Eibar:
After ten rounds, Eibar rubs very close to the Spanish relegation zone. That is not strange, because with just a win in the last twenty away games, the Basques almost always fall through the ice outside. Last weekend, with a 2-0 defeat to visit at Real Valladolid, it wasn’t that good either.
Due to the poor performance on foreign soil, Eibar puts extra pressure on itself in home games, because the red-blue ones in the Ipurua therefore have to grab points to keep their heads above water. Los Armeros already managed to beat Celta de Vigo (2-0) and Sevilla (3-2) in-house this season, but with only one point from the last three games, Basque self-confidence is currently at a low level.
Villarreal:
In terms of spectacle you have come to the right place at Villarreal this early season. The yellow shirts scored 24 times this season in just ten rounds of games – only FC Barcelona fans were able to cheer more often this season. Thanks to this scoring drive, the team is again fully involved in the fight for European football this season.
Villarreal is a feast for the eyes this season, especially in an offensive sense. Rapid wing hits Karl Toko Ekambi and Samuel Chukwueze scare the Spanish backs, while center striker Gerard Moreno leads the Spanish top scorers list with seven hits. Yet the offensive playing style of Villarreal also has a major disadvantage. The team of coach Javi Calleja puts her opponent under pressure early, but is therefore very vulnerable in the switchover. In addition, the goal production outside the own Ceramica, with only seven goals in five away games, is a bit disappointing.
