A victory in this clash could prove to be pivotal in the fight for survival.
A 1-0 defeat against Villarreal means that Getafe have won just once in their last nine matches in the Spanish top-flight.
The home side has the joint-worst attack in La Liga, along with the visitors, as both teams have scored just 26 goals in the Spanish top-flight. They have also failed to score in four of their last six league games.
Getafe have struggled for home wins of late, winning just one of their last seven league games in La Liga. In fact, they have failed to win in their last four home games, having scored just once in four home league matches.
Eibar are rock bottom of the Spanish top-flight, five points adrift of safety. Last time out, the visitors recorded a 3-0 home win over Alaves.
The victory ended a 17-game winless run for Jose Mendilibar’s in La Liga, while also ending a run of five straight defeats in the Spanish top-flight.
One of the main factors in Eibar’s recent poor away form has been their defensive record, as they have conceded at least two goals in four of their last six league matches on their travels.
The visitor's poor defensive record has contributed to over 2.5 goals scored in four of those six away matches.
Forebet predicts that Getafe will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to move away from the relegation zone, but add to Eibar’s chances of suffering the drop.
