Match Facts:
Eibar (11th, 15 pts)
- The Basques are bidding for their first win against Celta at Ipurua in the top flight, although they did beat the Galicians 1-0 at Balaidos in their maiden season in the division, 2014/15.
- If they score this matchday, Eibar will bring up their century of goals in LaLiga Santander.
Celta (8th, 17 pts)
- Eduardo Berizzo's side are unbeaten in their last three domestic outings and will be seeking to make it two wins on the bounce in order to continue their climb up the table and move into the European berths.
- With Iago Aspas, the LaLiga Santander Player of the Month for October, suspended, John Guidetti is primed to deputise and will be determined to make his mark.
- At his pre-match press conference, Berizzo defended the style of play employed by his charges' upcoming opponents: "Eibar don't exactly play direct football, they're a team who make use of combination play. They've got very good central midfielders, a great playmaker and players on both wings who are gifted on the ball."
