Sevilla and Eibar meet in a match in the 34th round of La Liga. The match will be played on Monday, at 21:00, on Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, without spectators.
After a series of four consecutive draws, the Andalusians managed to get a victory by a score of no-show on the field of Leganes, the penultimate ranked in La Liga. In fact, 12 of the 15 victories this season of Sevilla were obtained at zero. Currently, Julen Lopetegui’s team is on the 4th position, three points ahead of Villareal, which plays the import of Barcelona in this stage.
On the other hand, Eibar occupies the last position that ensures the maintenance in the first league. They are six points behind the next ranked team, Mallorca, which also has an extra match played. Since the resumption of the season, the Basques have had a balanced balance, with two victories, two draws and two defeats. In the previous stage, Eibar lost with the score of 0-2 at home, in front of Osasuna.
The two teams are fighting on different fronts, but both need a point or points. Eibar is an awkward team, thanks to the suffocating pressing that Jose Luis Mendilibar’s team makes in the opposing half of the field. Proof of this is the move from Real Madrid, where Eibar, despite losing 1-3, managed to respect the “Galactics”, who had only six chances to score in the entire game and a possession of only 54%. We rely on a solid performance from the guests and on a match that they will not lose by a difference of more than one goal.
