Eibar vs Levante Betting Tips and Predictions

These two sides were among the favourites for the drop at the start of the season but as it turned out only one of them is struggling. Eibar are in 8th place, just 2 points off 7th which is likely to be good enough for Europa League football next term while Levante remain rooted to the foot of the table and 5 points adrift of safety.

There have been signs that they are improving though so this could well be a close game. They’ve picked up important wins against fellow strugglers Las Palmas and Rayo Vallecano since the turn of the year and they were within 1 goal of Barcelona until stoppage time last weekend.

Eibar meanwhile have just gone off the boil a little and have lost 4 of their last 5 in all competitions and all of their last 3 league games although they’ve also had one or two tough fixtures. It has been defensively that they’ve struggled in those matches and up front they remain surprisingly potent and only Barcelona and Real Madrid have scored more goals than them this season in La Liga. Borja Baston has been their chief predator and has netted 15 times already.

Levante are also a team that scores quite a few goals, certainly considering they are bottom of the league. They’ve scored 9 goals in their last 5 matches with both teams scoring in 4 of them. Both teams have scored in all of Eibar’s last 5 too so consider backing both teams to score here at Evens.

This isn’t likely to be a one-sided affair but Eibar are strong at home and have won 5 of their last 8 on home soil so might edge it given Levante have lost all of their last 5 on the road. You can get 15/2 for a 2-1 Eibar win here.
