Preview
Eibar and Espanyol meet at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa, in a match for the 19th round of the Primera División. In the last 3 years these teams met twice: the earliest head‑to‑head was played on 08‑05‑2015 and ended in a (0‑2) win by Espanyol, and the latest on 04‑01‑2015, which ended in a (1‑2) win by Eibar. Espanyol registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Eibar

The home team is currently in the 8th position of the league, with 27 points won, after 7 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Sporting Gijón, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in an away match against Real Betis, by (0‑4). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a home loss against Las Palmas by (2‑3). For the league, Eibar won 15 points out of 27 possible points, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in the last 9 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 9 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 8 of the last 9 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 14 of the last 18 matches for the Primera División, they have reached half‑time in front in 11 of those 14 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 7 of them. In the last 11 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Despite being a team with few conditions, Eibar has made an interesting championship, obtaining good results against top opponents. The way the team found to protect themself from their weaknesses is to lower their lines and enjoy, mostly, the counterattacks. But, when they’re winning, the home team shows some defensive permeability, allowing, often, the opponent to reduce the disadvantage. Dos Santos, Junca and Jaime won’t be able to contribute to their team because they are injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Asier Riesgo, Ander Capa, Antonio Luna, Aleksandar Pantić, Ramis, Gonzalo Escalante, Keko, Dani García, Borja Bastón, Sergi Enrich, Takashi Inui.
Coach: J. Mendilibar Etxebarria.

Analysis Espanyol

The away team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 6 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Sevilla, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Barcelona, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 18 conceded. In their last match, for the Copa del Rey, they got an away loss against Barcelona by (4‑1). In the last 9 away league matches Espanyol has a record of 2 wins and 7 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 27 possible.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 5 losses in the last away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 6 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

The most offensive reference of the visiting team is the Ecuadorian Caicedo, player with five goals scored this season and that makes the air football his best weapon. The midfielder Marco Asensio is the player responsible for defining and conducting the offensive situations of his team. To note that the Spanish is a very aggressive team in all matches, and when they act against a superior opponent they choose to lower their lines and leave on the counterattack. Arbilla, Víctor Sánchez and Cañas are absent of this match because they are injured. 

Confirmed Lineup: Pau López, Javi López, Víctor Álvarez, Antonio Raíllo, Enzo Roco, Joan Jordán, Papakouli Diop, Marco Asensio, Hernán Pérez, Felipe Caicedo, Gerard Moreno.
Coach: L. Ramis Monfort.
