Eibar vs Barcelona Predictions

Barcelona are heading to another league title and few can argue that they don’t deserve it. Their 5-1 win at Rayo Vallecano on Thursday extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to a record-breaking 35 matches. 16 of the last 17 have been wins too and it is going to take a good side to end that run. Eibar are having a good season and Luis Enrique will certainly give them the respect they deserve by naming a full-strength side especially with a rare midweek free following this game.

Eibar’s hopes of Europa League football are fading a little after 3 successive defeats in the league against Celta Vigo, Las Palmas and Sevilla. They’ve lost 6 of their last 7 games although remain in 8th but are now 5 points behind Athletic in 7th, a margin that could well grow this weekend unless they can pull off a shock win over the Catalans.

Eibar’s record against the top three since promotion reads played 10 lost 10 and it’s hard to see that changing here. Barcelona, as you would expect, are very short odds to win the game but there is much better value in backing Barcelona to Win and Both Teams to Score at 7/5.

Those odds look really generous for a couple of reasons. Firstly Barcelona have won but also conceded in all of their last 5 league games and 7 of their last 8. Secondly Eibar are a team that scores plenty of goals and have netted 40 times this season, a record only Barca, Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao can better so there is every chance of a home goal here.
