Eibar face Real Sociedad B at Municipal de Ipurua, Eibar on Sunday, Jan 3 at 3:00 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the LaLiga 2, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

Eibar come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Real Sociedad B travel struggling badly (1W 4L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

History strongly favours Eibar here — they've won 7 of 10 previous meetings against Real Sociedad B, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Real Sociedad B won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Eibar a slight edge, but Real Sociedad B are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
