Almeria — Eibar : Match Preview and Prediction for November 01,2025

Almeria’s Recent Form and Eibar’s Struggle

Almeria’s Attacking Flair and Defensive Concerns

After an initial period of difficulty, Almeria has evolved into a team known for its open and aggressive attacking style. Their tally of 20 goals places them as the league’s second-highest scoring side, just behind Racing (with 27 goals). However, their defense remains a weak point, having conceded 17 goals, making it the fourth-worst defensive record in the division. Despite these defensive lapses, coach Rubi’s team has consistently secured points, achieving four victories and two draws in their most recent six fixtures. Following Luis Suarez’s transfer to Sporting this summer, Embarba arrived as his replacement. The midfielder, returning from a loan spell at Rayo Vallecano, has already made a significant impact with five goals in the Segunda.

Eibar’s Contrasting Fortunes: Home vs. Away

Eibar is recognized for their robust performances at home, where they have recorded three wins and three draws. Their away form, however, presents a stark contrast, marked by five winless matches, including one draw and five defeats. Benat San Jose’s squad has struggled to find the net on the road, scoring only three goals in five away games, contributing to their total of just 11 goals for the entire season, one of the lowest in the league. Compounding their troubles, Eibar’s away defense is particularly vulnerable, having allowed 8 of their 10 goals when playing away from home.

Key Prediction for the Match

Almeria is expected to employ an expansive, attacking strategy at home to outmaneuver Eibar, a team that typically attempts to play a conservative, low-scoring game but appears largely ineffective on the road. Despite Eibar’s potential for stubborn resistance, the hosts are predicted to gain the advantage. Therefore, our forecast is that Almeria will either win or draw, with the match seeing a minimum of two goals scored.
