Eibar, January 06 at 4:30 PM IST
Villarreal will look to build on their sensational draw against champions Real Madrid as they visit the Ipurua Municipal Stadium next to take on a consistent Eibar side. Villarreal are upbeat after pulling themselves clear of the relegation battle with two crucial draws against Real Madrid and Huesca. They even have a win against Spartak Moskva in the European League to make things look slightly better for them. But they’ll be desperate to take at least a point and better their 17th place standing in the La Liga table.
The hosts on the other hand are unbeaten in their last four games, but didn’t manage to register a win either as all four encounters ended up in a draw. They will however look to grab all three points tomorrow and see themselves in the top half of the table again. A win for both the sides will be nothing less than a season decider.
Eibar – 3, Villarreal – 1, Draws- 0
