FC Barcelona Faces Eibar in League F Showdown This Sunday

Eibar, Spain – The SD Eibar Femenino will host FC Barcelona for a crucial match in Liga F on March 2, 2025, at 14:00 (local time) at the Estadio Municipal de Ipurúa. This marks a significant moment for both teams as the league resumes following the international break.

The Eibar squad, currently in 10th place with 21 points from 19 matches, is looking to recover from a concerning stretch of form, managing only two wins in their last six outings. Despite this inconsistency, Eibar boasts victories against top-tier teams, including Real Madrid and Athletic Club. The team aims to capitalize on their home advantage to pull off an upset against the reigning champions, Barcelona.

FC Barcelona, on the other hand, is in a strong position, leading Liga F with 54 points and coming off a recent victory that improved their standings. The team, coached by Pere Romeu, is five points ahead of second-place Real Madrid and is keen to extend this margin further with a win this Sunday. Notably, Barcelona previously trounced Eibar 4-0 in their last encounter at the Johan Cruyff Stadium.

The match comes at a critical point in the season for both teams. Barcelona has made headlines recently with player transfers, including the loss of midfielder Keira Walsh to Chelsea and Mariona Caldentey’s transfer to Arsenal. However, they have strengthened their defense with the potential renewal of Irene Paredes’ contract, securing her place in the squad.

On the injury front for Barcelona, Alexia Putellas is still recovering from her injury, while Patri and Roebuck have received medical clearance, with the former expected to start. The team is highly motivated to maintain their winning streak and further solidify their position at the top of the league.

The match will be available for live streaming on DAZN and Movistar+, and fans can follow live updates through various platforms, including the dedicated coverage from Artículo 14, which follows the progress of Liga F, Champions League, and Copa de la Reina.

Kickoff is set for 14:00 local time (12:00 GMT) and fans are expected to turn out in numbers to support both teams in this electrifying matchup. Coach Yerai Martín of Eibar will be looking to inspire his team to rise to the occasion and challenge the formidable Barcelona side.
