Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Following back-to-back defeats to Real Oviedo and Sporting Gijon, Eibar will look to give fans something to cheer about when they take on Eldense on Matchday 9. Los Armeros suffered a dip in form, but Saturday’s clash could be the turning point for the home side. Defender Aritz Arambarri is banned for the match, while both Jon Guruzeta and Jonmi Magunagoitia are out of contention with injuries.
Los Azulgranas, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 3-2 loss to Castellon. As Eldense experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the last league match, we are tempted to bet on the Basques, who are desperate to get back on course. Last time out Eibar rolled over Eldense at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to the Basque Country.
