Valencia vs Eibar Prediction & Betting tips
Valencia can make good use of the support of its fans on Sunday afternoon, when the team takes on their own Mestalla against Eibar. The home team has to win to stay in the race for a ticket for the Champions League.
Valencia:
Valencia did a poor service in the midweek round by losing 3-2 at Atletico Madrid. The club from the orange city dropped to sixth place, and now has to hope in the battle for fourth place that both Getafe and Sevilla both lose points. In addition, the team of coach Marcelino will of course have to win all her remaining matches, starting at home against Eibar on Sunday afternoon.
Despite the disappointment last weekend in Madrid, Valencia is not giving up its Champions League dream. “It’s still possible,” says Marcelino. “We’re in good shape, so we’re not giving up hope.” Valencia indeed has a great second half of the season, with Goncalo Guedes as the pacemaker. The Portuguese playmaker, however, had to be injured against Atletico Madrid and is also a big question mark for next weekend. If he can’t be there against Eibar, that would mean a huge loss for Los Che.
Eibar:
Eibar yearns for the end of the season. With forty points the Basques are unofficially safe, but the game of the last few weeks is not to be missed. Also last Tuesday evening the team of coach Jose Luis Mendilibar didn’t make any of it, and the team went completely wrong with 2-0 to relegation candidate Huesca.
The big question now is whether Eibar can resume and end the season in a worthy way. With only a single win in seventeen away games, the outlook is not good at all. In addition, due to injuries from Pedro Bigas, Anaitz Arbilla and possibly Pedro Bigas, Mendilibar will have to puzzle again in his defense.
