Atletico come into this clash in between Champions League semi-final legs against Real Madrid, with Diego Simeone’s men sure to be preoccupied with their likely elimination from Europe.
Los Colchoneros bounced back from a 1-0 home defeat to Villarreal last time out at Estadio Vicente Calderon, with a 5-0 thrashing on the road against Las Palmas to boost their spirits ahead of our Atletico Madrid vs Eibar preview.
- Atletico 3-0 Osasuna
- Espanyol 0-1 Atletico
- Atletico 0-1 Villarreal
- Las Palmas 0-5 Atletico
Atletico have kept clean sheets in three of their last five LaLiga games at home, with only Villarreal and Sevilla managing to break their defensive resolve, an important factor in our Atletico Madrid vs Eibar predictions.
Eibar have faltered in the race for Europe and are now firmly out of the equation for a Europa League finish, after picking up just one win in their last four fixtures in the league.
- Betis 2-0 Eibar
- Eibar 0-1 Athletic Bilbao
- Alaves 0-0 Eibar
- Eibar 2-0 Leganes
Diego Godin is back after suspension for the home side, but Simeone continues to have selection problems at right-back due to injuries of Jose Gimenez, Sime Vrsaljko, and Juanfran.
Eibar have failed to score in three of their last four LaLiga games, which should be music to Atletico’s ears. They need three points in the race for third place, making our life easier in our Atletico Madrid vs Eibar picks.
