Sevilla will have the opportunity to take revenge from their first league defeat on the road against the winless Eibar. The host is sitting on the second bottom and they will host the top four Sevilla in what would be an interesting clash in La Liga. The position in the tournament doesn’t tell the entire story of this fixture and we would like also to expect a tough battle in the campaign in contrast to the league table suggest on this upcoming matchup. Both teams are considered to be named the most interesting club of the year. The visitors have currently acquired the joint lowest goals netted within the top nine of La Liga, for the moment only 4 squads have to managed fewer goals at the present than the struggling Eibar.
Sevilla’s last seven goals in the campaign have been under 2.5 goals scored, which will see as one goal for every fixture in La Liga this season. We can consider this as the effect of the summer transfer window for Lopetegui’s club. As a result, the visitors have lost Wissam Ben Yedder and Pablo Sarabia in the summer window. Ben Yedder had 18 goals and 9 assists in La Liga last season while Sarabia had 12 goals and 13 assists in La Liga last season. As we analyze the scenario, the important duo highly contributed to Sevilla’s 62 league goals. The visitors are now struggling to replace the attacking hole that was left by these players, their major offensive attack threat has been set-pieces this season. They have netted 3 coming from their 5 goals from set-pieces. However, one of the greatest qualities of Eibar is the defending set-pieces, it is too early to concede from a set-piece this campaign. Sevilla must be aware of the important factor that Eibar is good at attacking set-pieces and simultaneously defending them. The host netted two coming from their four goals on this tournament from set-pieces and expecting to play for set-pieces on this fixture.
