The match will be played on Friday at 22:00 on Estadio Municipal de Ipurua. It remains to be seen if Eibar will continue its ascension lately.
Eibar: current form, latest results, statistics
Eibar is in a very good time with 4 consecutive stages without defeat. These results brought it back to the top half of the top 10 ranking with 30 points. It is quite close to the European positions, which only divide 5 points.
The change for the better appeared with the return of the team to the central defender Ivan Ramis, who seems to be the real catalyst of the team. In some ways Eibar plays when he is on the field and quite different when he is not. Unfortunately, Ramis is very hurt and does not record more than 25 events per season.
The examples are very clear. Leganes was left on the bench because he just returned after an injury. Eibar led 2-0, but was equaled very quickly in the second half, and the opponent pressed continuously. It was introduced to the Ramis field and everything was solved, defensively becoming a hermetic.
With Sevilla he was in the field from the beginning, but was changed in the 58th minute. Andaluza team forced the final and managed to equalize, even if he was with a less man on the field. But Ramis was on the bench.
The results of the last 5 matches are as follows:
- 13.01.19 Barcelona vs Eibar 3-0
- 21.01.19 Eibar vs Espanyol 3-0
- 26.01.19 Leganes vs Eibar 2-2
- 03.02.19 Eibar vs Girona 3-0
- 10.02.19 Sevilla vs Eibar 2-2
We must note that Eibar has scored 10 times in the last 4 stages. If we take into account that in the 19th place scored 21 times, we understand that it is a great performance and attests that it is in a very good shape.
In the 12 meetings he played on Ipurua only once did not score with Villareal. He remains a team that relies heavily on home results, where he has brought 22 of the 30 points in the leaderboard.
Charles scored 4 times in the last 4 stages and reached 10 goals scored for Eibar this season.
Getafe: current form, latest results, statistics
Getafe is immediately behind the big teams in La Liga and after the 23rd round. She occupies 5th place with 35 points, with only two less than Sevilla, occupying the last position of the Champions League. It has the advantage that it is not engaged in European competitions and has a less busy schedule than the teams in front of it.
Until the meeting with Atletico Madrid, 3 steps ago, he had not lost any meeting away from that 0-2 with Real Madrid since the start of the season. It is a team that organizes very well and leaves very few spaces to the opponents.
Let’s see the last 5 meetings:
- 22.01.19 Getafe vs Valencia 1-0 (Copa del Rey)
- 26.01.19 Atletico Madrid vs Getafe 2-0
- 29.01.19 Valencia vs Getafe 3-1 (Copa del Rey)
- 02.02.19 Levante vs Getafe 0-0
- 09.02.19 Getafe vs Celta Vigo 3-1
In the meeting with Celta Vigo, coach Bordalas said he was pleased with the result, but the observer and defensive problems, one that seemed fragile, unusual for Getafe. Let’s not forget he has the second defense in La Liga, after that of Atletico Madrid.
It is a team that often marks away. He did it in 9 of the 12 disputed games. Just with Atletico, Real Madrid and Levante did not sign up.
Jorge Molina, 9 goals scored, remains the scorer of the visiting team. Just one goal behind him is Jaime Mata, who succeeded in imposing himself as a champion after coming to the beginning of the Valladolid season.
Since the promotion of Eibar’s first league in 2014, the two teams met seven times. Each has won twice, and three games have ended. Note that Ipurua has not made a draw so far, twice winning Eibar and once Getafe.
Eibar is in a very good shape, but he will meet a team that organizes himself very well in the defensive. It will be difficult for the host team to strap the guests’ seat.
