Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Eibar will look to retain top position in the standings when they host Huesca at their Estadio Municipal de Ipurua in the La Liga2 round 25. Los Armeros aim to build on a 2-0 win over Almeria, and the bookies see them as favourites to pick up all three points from Saturday’s clash. January signing Chema Rodriguez is widely expected to make his full Eibar debut against Huesca.
Los Azulgranas, on the other hand, suffered a 2-0 loss to Ponferradina in their last league match. Huesca have slim chances of booking their place in the playoffs, and seeing that Eibar are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing something from the match. January signing Pablo Martinez is likely to start this time out as he scored as a substitute on his Huesca debut at the weekend.
