Real Madrid Women Seek Sixth Straight Win Against Eibar in Liga F
MADRID, Spain — The Real Madrid women’s team will aim to extend their winning streak to six matches as they host Eibar in a Liga F clash on Sunday at the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium. The match marks the conclusion of the first half of the season for both teams.
Real Madrid, currently in strong form, has secured five consecutive victories following a decisive loss to FC Barcelona in the Clásico. The team is looking to maintain momentum ahead of the upcoming Spanish Women's Super Cup. “Real Madrid, for me, is the second-best team after FC Barcelona,” said Eibar coach Yerai Martín during a pre-match press conference.
Eibar, on the other hand, is fighting to distance itself from the relegation zone. After a 3-0 defeat to Sevilla in their last outing, the Basque side sits just four points above the drop zone. Martín emphasized the need for improvement, stating, “We have to compete and defend well, avoid the mistakes from the last match, and give our best in what will be a very difficult game.”
Real Madrid’s strong season has been highlighted by consistent performances, with their only setbacks being the loss to Barcelona and a draw against Atlético de Madrid. Eibar, meanwhile, is focused on securing points to climb the league table. The match kicks off at 12:00 p.m. local time and will be broadcast live on DAZN.
