Eibar host Almeria in the Spanish Segunda División. Both sides have made useful starts to the campaign and currently sit in the top half of the table.
Eibar have also been the stronger side in recent head-to-head meetings between these two clubs, though Almeria have shown they're capable of scoring goals themselves this season. How that balances out at Ipurua is worth digging into before kickoff.

Recent form
Eibar's wider run of matches shows 12 wins, four draws and four defeats across their last 20 fixtures, though that sample stretches back through pre-season friendlies and the back end of last term, not just this campaign. Even so, the pattern of regular wins has continued into the new season, including a 3-0 win over Granada and a 4-0 away win at Celta de Vigo's B side.
Eibar: 20 completed matches; Almeria: 20 completed matches.

Comparative Team Statistics: Eibar vs Almeria

Head-to-head record
Eibar have won four of the last six meetings between these two clubs, including the most recent one back in January, a 1-0 win at home. Almeria's only win in that recent stretch came in November 2025, a 3-1 scoreline on their own patch.

There's also a 2-2 draw in there from 2024, so it hasn't been completely one-way. Older meetings go back over a decade and carry little weight on current form, but the recent trend does lean towards Eibar.
Where they stand
Eibar are second in the Segunda División table with 15 points from six games, winning five and losing just once. Almeria sit fifth with 12 points from the same number of matches, having won four and lost two.

| 6 | Sabadell | 7 | 3 | 3 | 1 | 8/6 | 12 |
Both teams have conceded only four goals so far, which says plenty about their defensive discipline early on. The difference comes at the other end: Eibar have scored 12, two more than Almeria's ten.
Eibar's extra scoring output has been the main separator between the two sides so far this season.

Players to watch
Jon Guruzeta has three goals in six appearances for Eibar this season and also chips in with assists, while Iván Gil has added two goals of his own. Ander Madariaga has provided two assists, showing Eibar's goals are coming from more than one source.
For Almeria, Javi Muñoz has two goals and two assists in just three matches, a lively return in limited minutes. B. Cipenga leads the assist charts for either side with three in six games. On discipline, a couple of Eibar players have picked up red cards in recent matches, though that doesn't confirm anyone's unavailable for this one.

There's a reasonable case that Eibar's home advantage and recent head-to-head edge make them the more solid side on paper. But without a quoted market to weigh against that view, there's nothing concrete to back here.
Given the mixed recent form on both sides and the lack of a specific betting line to assess, we're happy to sit this one out rather than force a pick.
