Both Eibar and Real Valladolid occupy the early relegation places, desperate to secure their first points of the campaign after disappointing opening-day defeats.
Eibar enter this fixture 19th in the table with 41 games remaining to secure their safety. They suffered a 1-3 home defeat against Tenerife last time out and will be eager to make amends in their second consecutive match at Ipurúa. The side is looking to overturn a recent dip in form that has seen them lose three of their last six league outings.
Real Valladolid sit 20th after a 0-2 loss away to Mallorca. Like their hosts, they are currently inside the relegation zone on zero points. Having also lost three of their last six matches dating back to the previous cycle, the visitors are under immediate pressure to find a result on the road to avoid being adrift in the early standings.
