Albacete take on the visitors Eibar in the round 36 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Friday, April 14th at Estadio Carlos Belmonte (Albacete).
Albacete have forgotten how to win lately. Their last victory dates back to early March and it's the only one they've had since mid-February. It's no wonder that the club is currently on a five-match winless streak, including three losses. They couldn't even beat Zaragoza, who are in 13th place in the standings. Albacete had to settle for a draw against a team that had only won one out of six games before the match. And they were beaten by Racing, who are already struggling in the relegation zone. The opponent's team had not won in four games, had two consecutive losses before the match, and all that the "cheeses" could do was to score a consolation goal after conceding four in response.

Eibar are the leader of the league. The team has been consistently performing well this season, quickly bouncing back from setbacks, which they haven't had in a long time. They have not faced defeat in eight consecutive games, with only three draws. Even Levante couldn't manage to beat them in their recent match. Why? Because one of those who can boast a stable level alongside Eibar, having lost only one game in 11 matches, was in their lineup. However, Levante was luckier with a draw. Eibar had the advantage, and Levante couldn't even hit the target once throughout the game. The goal came as an "own goal." In general, Eibar can now take points even against such opponents. Not to mention those who are more vulnerable, such as Burgos and Villarreal B. They proved to be easily beatable by the "gunmen," who are running with the "cheeses" without losing sight of them.
And here's the question: why are things turning out this way? Perhaps personal meetings are a factor, but that's a different story now. Eibar showed in the first round that they can play against this opponent from a position of strength. First of all, they didn't lose, and secondly, they dominated the game, bombarding the opponent with almost 23 shots, while Albacete responded with a modest four. This means that the "gunmen" can take the bull by the horns in the form of Albacete and play with the upper hand, which will lead to good chances of not losing. Especially since the "cheeses" have responded to their opponents' goals with a modest goal in five consecutive games. Eibar, on the other hand, has scored the most goals and has conceded only two in response in the last three games, including against Levante, who are in the top five, which speaks to their good defense. Albacete, on the other hand, has conceded six in their last two games.
Prediction for the match: Eibar not to lose (X2).
