Real Valladolid focuses on Eibar with Marcos André and Juric in the squad
Real Valladolid, after their opening league defeat to Mallorca (1-3), resumed training with their sights set on the upcoming match against Eibar, to be played this Sunday at 17:00 at the Ipurúa Municipal. The team from Valladolid, currently in 19th place in the Segunda División with 0 points (0W-0D-1L) and a goal difference of -2, is seeking their first win of the season.
What happened in training?
On Tuesday, Marcos André and Juric, who did not travel to the match against Mallorca despite being registered in LaLiga, rejoined the squad normally. Both players had been in limbo after failed transfer negotiations, but are now back with the team. Meanwhile, Amath, Jorge Delgado, and Álvaro de Pablo were given club permission to finalize their departures, while Trilli missed training due to physical discomfort.
Why is this important for Eibar?
Eibar, who also lost their first match, will face a Valladolid side with changes in their lineup. The presence of Marcos André and Juric could impact the home team's strategy, which will look to improve their defense after conceding three goals in their debut. The battle to escape the relegation zone will be key in this match.
What's next for both teams?
After this game, Eibar will face Eldense at home on March 7, 2027, currently in 21st place. Meanwhile, Valladolid will aim to gain points to move away from the danger zone and close the gap on the promotion spots, where leaders FC Andorra have a 3-point advantage.
