Eibar team had much strugle this season and it seemed that they could finish their adventure in Primeira Liga,
but,suddenly, they started playing much better and their positive series is
still on going. Eibar negative series lasted for seven games, out of
which they lost 05 times and received many goals in that period. The last time they lost a game was at the beginning of November against Real
Sociedad, and then starts the series which is currently at five matches with 04 wins and no defeat.
Eibar easily defeated Real Betis
and then Espanyol on their field, and in the last round, they defeated also
Valencia with 2-1, and before Valencia also Getafe, with the proviso
that Jordan missed the penalty.
FC Girona, on the other side, had their own crisis at the very beginning when they had 06 matches without a win and were then at the edge of the relegation zone,
but they also managed to recover and had three consecutive wins,
of which once against Real Madrid which help them get in the middle of
the table, and with the new two wins in the previous two rounds the team
also got at the upper part. It is quite interesting that FC Girona made the all six
wins with minimal difference, so three times it was 1-0 and 2-1.
After a defeat by Deportivo Alaves three rounds ago, when they managed to
drop the lead with 2-0, they managed to consolidate their ranks and
celebrate against Espanyol with 1-0 away, as well as against Getafe on
their field in the last round. Girona is having more problems with
cards than with injuries lately, so Pere Pons paused in the last round,
while Granella will not be in the team due to yellow cards.
Probable lineups for this match:
Eibar: Dmitrovic – Capa, P.Oliveira, Arbilla, Jose Angel – Alejo, Jordan, D.Garcia, Inui – Charles, S.Enrichs
FC Girona: Bono – Espinosa, Ramalho, Juanpe – Maffeo, Pons, Timor, Mojica – Portu, Stuani, Borja
