Eibar displayed a defined statistical profile in their Segunda División match against Córdoba on 25 October 2026. Data compiled by ESPN.com.gt reveals an offensive team with clear areas for improvement in defensive solidity.
This analysis comes as Eibar currently sits eighth in the league table, with 6 points from three games. Their goal difference is even, with 3 scored and 3 conceded, and they are just one point behind leaders Granada CF. The next challenge is a direct showdown at home against Granada on 6 September, a key match you can check on our fixtures page.
How was Eibar's offensive performance?
The Basque team demonstrated a strong ability to create dangerous chances. During the match against Córdoba, Eibar recorded high effectiveness in shots on target, with percentages ranging from 56% to 64%. This translated to an average of 1.67 goals scored per game, a figure that reflects an efficient forward line. Furthermore, their offensive pressure materialized in a high number of corner kicks, totaling between 14 and 15 throughout the match.
Consistency in attack is an asset the club aims to maintain in the current 2026/27 season. With three goals scored in the first three matchdays, the team needs this trend to continue to climb positions in the standings. The next major test will be against the table-toppers.
Where are the defensive weaknesses?
Despite the offensive power, the defensive numbers present a notable contrast. Eibar conceded an average of 1.00 goal per game in the analysis of the clash with Córdoba. More concerning is the clean sheet statistic, which remained at 0, indicating difficulties in closing out games convincingly.
The goalkeeping statistics showed great variability, with save percentages ranging from a low of 2% to a solid 77%, with 46% being another recorded value. This inconsistency between the posts is an area the coaching staff must stabilize urgently. The lack of defensive solidity partly explains why the average goal difference per game was -0.7, although another calculation placed it at +0.0.
How did the team behave in physical play?
Eibar's commitment and intensity on the pitch were evident in the data for fouls committed. The team accumulated between 25 and 55 fouls in the match, a wide range that suggests moments of great combativeness but also possibly a lack of control. This aspect of their game needs refining to avoid giving away free advantages to opponents and risking suspensions, information always updated on our injuries page.
Maintaining aggression within the regulatory limits will be key in upcoming duels, especially against technical teams like Granada. Tactical discipline could be the difference in tight matches.
The focus is now entirely on preparing for the match on 6 September at Ipurua against league leaders Granada CF.
