Match Overview

The fourth round of Segunda action will conclude with a clash between Eibar, for whom this season marks their fifth attempt to return to La Liga, and newly promoted FC Andorra.

Eibar’s Recent Performance

For the first three years, Eibar consistently reached the playoffs, often narrowly missing direct promotion. In the 2024/25 season, they failed to even make the playoff zone, never appearing there after the seventh round. By February, they were dangerously close to the relegation zone. While they managed to recover to ninth place, they couldn’t advance further. Immediately after hitting their lowest point, Benat San Jose took over as coach. The ‘Gunsmiths’ have had a somewhat challenging start to the new season under his leadership. Their primary concern lies in away matches, where they’ve secured only one point from a possible six so far. At home, however, they decisively defeated Granada (3-0), though their opponents had a player sent off.

FC Andorra’s Impressive Start

FC Andorra stands out as the most successful newcomer from Primera Federación this season, having already climbed to fourth place in the league table. Gerard Pique’s club not only secured a home victory against Burgos (2-1) but also triumphed over Zaragoza away (3-1). In their third drawn match and Week 1 fixture, the team, now under the guidance of Ibai Gomez, also managed to score, drawing 1-1 with Las Palmas.

Expert’s Final Verdict

FC Andorra’s main objective for the season is to remain in Segunda; once that’s achieved, they will assess their next steps. Eibar is quite formidable at home under San Jose, with only one defeat, five wins, and three draws. They are unlikely to lose this match, but FC Andorra, following their trend, is also expected to score. This suggests that a ‘Total Goals Over’ bet will likely come through.
