Eibar take on the visitors Espanyol at “Ipurua” in the round 28 match of the LaLiga. The game will be played on Saturday, March 18th.
Eibar cannot win in last three matches of the season, recording two draws vs. Real Sociedad 2:2 and vs. Osasuna 1:1 plus 1:4 defeat vs. Real Madrid. But this fact does not cramp to “Los Armeros” to occupy high 8th place in the LaLiga with 40 scored points and 43-38 goal difference as well as not to worry about their future in the Spanish LaLiga. Eibar show solid game at their own turf by collecting 26 points with 23 goals for and 17 goals against in 14 played games.

Espanyol won last match at their own ground 2:3 vs. Las Palmas and due to that they came close to Eibar in the LaLiga standings. After 27 played matches, “Periquitos” have 39 points, 39-38 goal difference and occupy the 9th place. Espanyol played 13 games on the road and had taken 16 points with 14-20 goal difference.
Eibar and Espanyol met five times in the history. Each side won two matches and one clash ended with a draw. So there is the total balance in their head-to-head record. I believe that the draw is quite possible in the upcoming match, but I prefer to play it safe and take the visiting’s side with Asian handicap. The match score won’t be big for sure, besides there are nice odds.
Prediction for the match: Espanyol to win with +1.0 Asian handicap.
