Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
There will be fireworks when Eibar and Amorebieta go head to head in the Basque derby at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua. Los Armeros are eyeing their fourth consecutive win at home ground and they are seen as hot favourites to beat the relegation strugglers in Sunday’s clash. Peru Nolaskoain is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 2-1 loss to Albacete, while fellow midfielder Matheus Pereira is banned for the match.
The visitors, on the other hand, are desperate to escape the relegation zone, but they should not be looking for points in the clash with Eibar. As Amorebieta have already suffered nine defeats on the road this term, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the Basque derby. Felix Garreta is back from suspension, while there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
