SD Eibar vs Alcorcón Prediction & Preview

Preview

This Sunday, the 36th round of La Liga 2 brings an intriguing clash at Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa, where SD Eibar hosts Alcorcón. Kicking off at 14:15, this match is pivotal for both teams but for very different reasons. SD Eibar, currently sitting comfortably in third place with 58 points, looks to solidify their promotion aspirations. In contrast, Alcorcón sits in a precarious 16th position with 40 points and is embroiled in a fight to avoid relegation.

Recent form shows that both teams have been performing relatively well. SD Eibar has secured three wins and suffered two losses in their last five matches. Notably, they come off a confident away win against FC Andorra (0-2). On the other hand, Alcorcón has been slightly better point-wise recently; they've amassed three wins along with one loss and one draw from their last five outings – including a narrow home victory over Villarreal II (1-0).

When it comes to head-to-head encounters between these two clubs this season paints a slightly different picture—Alcorcón emerged victorious (1-0) when they last met on December 17th at Estadio Santo Domingo.

A look into goal averages reveals that SD Eibar scores more consistently than their rivals – averaging at about twice as many goals per game overall and significantly more so when playing on home turf (2 goals per game). Although defensively both teams concede approximately one goal per game on average across all venues which could hint towards potential vulnerabilities.

Bet

Considering the odds provided alongside performance statistics of each team suggests betting scenarios become quite compelling here! The odds favoring an SD Eibar home win are placed at 1.45 due to their strong scoring record particularly when playing in front of their own fans combined with Alcorcón's poor away scoring record (averaging just .25 goals per game). However given how tightly contested recent games have been between these two sides coupled by close defensive records there might also be value seen within 'Under 2.5 Goals' offered at odds of 1.66 especially taking into account lower scoring nature expected from away side. Given these considerations - recommended bet would lean towards "Under 2.5 Goals". This provides not only safer returns considering past performances but also aligns closely with historical data outcomes between them under similar conditions.
