Preview | Ipurua waits the best visitor of the league

SD Eibar - CD Leganés (Ipurua; Saturday, October 25, 4:15 PM)

Within Sociedad Deportiva Eibar, there is a sense of revenge in the air. A revenge not focused on the opponent, but on the need to once again make Ipurua a fortress. Despite not having been defeated at home yet, Eibar has been unable to secure three points at home since defeating Real Sociedad B three matchdays ago. However, the visit of CD Leganés adds an extra layer of motivation, as they are the best away team in the league and will face the "armeros" on Saturday, October 25, at 4:15 PM.

After falling at Gran Canaria in a display of effort and dominance without reward, SD Eibar returns to the shelter of Ipurua. There, they hope not only to reconnect with the support of their fans but also to reverse a trend of four matches without a win, two of which ended in draws. This loss of points has relegated Eibar to the 15th position in the table with 12 points. Despite this, the competitiveness of the league places them just one win away from the playoff spots, currently held by Burgos CF with 15 points.

With two more points than Eibar, Leganés sits in 11th place. With the same number of victories and two additional draws, Paco López's team arrives after defeating Málaga and Andorra and drawing 0-0 against Mirandés. A seven out of nine streak that has extinguished the fires ignited by consecutive losses to Las Palmas and Castellón at Butarque. Against all odds, it is away from home where the "pepinero" team boasts its best statistics: two wins and three draws in five outings, placing them among the leaders alongside three other teams with nine points.

Eibar will test that trend with the strength of Ipurua, where they remain unbeaten and have accumulated 11 points, making them the fourth-best home team in the table with one game less than those ahead of them.
