Eibar will visit El Molinon to face Sporting Gijon in the Spanish Segunda Division on Monday, looking to extend their unbeaten run in the league to five games.
Los Armeros have won and drawn twice each in their last four games to sit in fifth place with 18 points from 10 games.
The Basque Country outfit lost out to Girona in the promotion playoffs last season and are aiming for another attempt at a top-flight return.
Sporting Gijon, last seen in the top-flight in the 2016-17 season, recently sustained a fresh blow in their struggle for promotion following a 5-0 defeat to Granada on Thursday.
It was their third loss of the season in 10 games and slipped to ninth in the table, but they are still only two points away from the promotion playoffs.
