Real Madrid should be on a high after knocking PSG out of the Champions League and are expected to extend the celebrations with a win at Eibar on Saturday.
The hosts are enjoying a good season themselves, though, currently lying eighth in LaLiga after registering 11 victories and six draws in this competition.
That decent record tempts us to take 9/5 for an away win and both teams to score in our Eibar vs Real Madrid betting predictions.
Eibar may have been slightly frustrated to only draw at Deportivo last weekend, as they hit the front early on through Takashi Inui and their hosts had goalkeeper Maxim Koval sent off on 39 minutes.
However, Eibar did enjoy three wins last month, including a 5-1 thrashing of fifth-placed Sevilla and a 1-0 triumph over sixth-placed Villarreal at this venue.
Former Middlesbrough forward Kike hit the back of the net in both of those games and could capitalise if Real aren’t quite fully focused following their European heroics.
Looking at the Eibar vs Real Madrid odds, we like 3/1 for the visitors to prevail 2-1, 3-1 or 4-1.
Second-half goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro helped Real beat PSG 2-1 in France to make it 5-2 on aggregate and a Champions League treble is very much back on.
However, Zinedine Zidane admitted it is tough to maintain the same intensity when returning to domestic action.
He said: “We’ve had difficult moments in LaLiga and Copa del Rey, but it’s always difficult to maintain the same level while playing every three days.”
Both teams have scored in six of their seven LaLiga wins since the turn of the year, backing up our opening prediction.
Gareth Bale could start at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua after only coming on as a 76th-minute substitute in Paris.
“He wasn’t a starter in either leg, but he’s a very important player who causes lots of trouble to the opposition,” commented Zidane.
We’re finishing off our Eibar vs Real Madrid betting tips with a 33/1 scorecast on Bale to strike first in a 3-1 away win.
