Eibar vs Alaves – Prediction (La Liga – 24.11.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Eibar will play their first derby in LaLiga this season. Last campaign, only Real Sociedad (10) won more points than Eibar (9) in all the Basques derbies.

Eibar look to continue their fine run in Basque derbies after winning nine points from such fixtures last season, second only to Athletic Bilbao who picked up ten. The hosts may feel confident in doing so after winning as many La Liga (LL) games from their last three (W2, L1) as they did in the 12 games prior (W2, D4, L6).

In spite of the fact they have won half of their LL home fixtures, the hosts have had tough luck here this season after conceding more home league goals than all teams bar Espanyol so far (2.0 per match average), and are yet to score before half-time at home (HT: D3, L3). Fabian Orrellana assisted Kike García for a second-half goal in Eibar’s last two victories – both ended 2-1.

Eibar have averaged 2.54 bookings per match this LL season. There’s been five red cards shown across the last five LL H2Hs. Alavés are yet to take a lead at any point in away league games this season.

Home coach José Luis Mendilibar is unbeaten in five meetings with opposite number Asier Garitano (W4, D1), and in five of his six H2Hs with Deportivo Alavés (W2, D3, L1). Notably both teams scored in just one of Garitano’s last four meetings with Mendilibar’s Eibar, and Alavés lost by a single-goal margin in the last three.

The visitors have lost their last three Basque derbies without reply, and no Basque side has ever lost four consecutive derbies without scoring. Moreover, Alavés have conceded the opener in every away league game this term, with the full-time result mirroring the one at half-time in those road trips (D1, L5). Alavés’ Lucas Pérez equalled his career-best run of seven consecutive scoring appearances (from Oct-Dec 2015) after he netted from the spot last time out.
