Eibar and Racing Santander square off against each other at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua in what will be their first meeting in La Liga 2 since February 2002. Back then two teams played out a 2-2 draw, but los Armeros are seen as favourites to win Sunday’s clash. Eibar are eager to keep their 100% record at home intact, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the newcomers.
Stoichkov is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while centre-back Juan Berrocal Gonzalez is unlikely to feature against Santander after limping off with injury in a 2-0 loss to Andorra. The visitors, on the other hand, were more than fortunate not to suffer a loss to Las Palmas at the weekend (0-0), and seeing that midfielder Jorge Pombo is banned for Sunday’s encounter, home win should be considered.
