FC Barcelona vs. SD Eibar 2/22/20 - La Liga Soccer Picks & Predictions

FC Barcelona will play their next La Liga match at home at the Camp Nou where they will host Eibar. 

Eibar didn’t play their previous match as the fixture was postponed due to air contamination. The last time that Eibar stepped on the pitch was during their away game against Alaves. It was a poor match for Eibar as they were beaten 2-1. During the loss, Eibar controlled 62% of the possession but failed to create enough scoring chances as the team only took 5 shots in the entire match. It has been a tough season for Eibar as they only have 24 points from their 23 games. This is going to be a tough match for Eibar since the Camp Nou is one of the toughest places to visit in world football. 

Looking at FC Barcelona, the team enters this match having won their previous La Liga fixture. FC Barcelona defeated Getafe 2-1 at home. It was a solid display by Barcelona as they controlled 76% of the possession and had 12 shots. Antoine Griezmann and Sergio Roberto were the goal scorers for Barcelona. With key players like Ousmane Dembele and Luis Suarez injured, FC Barcelona have fallen behind Real Madrid in the La Liga title race. With that in mind, we should see a highly determined FC Barcelona side as they cannot afford to drop any points. 

FC Barcelona and Eibar played each other earlier in the season. The match was hosted by Eibar with FC Barcelona winning 3-0 away from home. Leo Messi, Antoine Griezmann and Luis Suarez all scored for FC Barcelona during the win.
