Elche, Recent FormAny Elche pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 away defeat by Amorebieta. They came away from that fixture with 71% of the possession and clocked up 19 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Amorebieta managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
4 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 1 goal in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. They've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
Having managed to remain undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home matches at The Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero, they have put together a strong home record of late, winning 3 of these games too.
Óscar Plano will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Elche.
Eibar, Recent FormEibar head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 1-0 home win against Real Zaragoza in their last league encounter. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Real Zaragoza's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Joseba Etxeberria will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 21 of their 26 games overall.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Jon Bautista will be looking to cause Elche some problems having scored 4 goals in Eibar's last 6 away games in the league.
It was not a positive ending for Elche last time they met Eibar in the league, with the game ending in a 2-1 defeat.
Elche have scored in each of their last 4 league meetings with Armagiñak. Playing at home, Elche have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Eibar. Los Franjiverdes have struggled for goals when Eibar comes to visit The Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
There is only really one injury concern for the Elche manager Sebastián Beccacece ahead of this clash, with Arnau Puigmal (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Beccacece a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Eibar manager Joseba Etxeberria has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
