Eibar were rarely in trouble as they climbed to sixth before the weekend's full fixture programme.

Sergi Enrich's effort for Eibar underlined a quiet first half, with neither team claiming the impetus to grab an advantage.

Bebe was the hosts' creative outlet, and his link play with Enrich was the most entertaining element before half-time.

Takashi Inui provided the ammunition Eibar needed to finally break the deadlock, and the Japan international set up Galvez to score after 53 minutes.

Paulo Oliveira almost doubled the advantage a minute later, with the visitors stunned by going behind.

 Enrich remained a menace until the final whistle, but the hosts failed to double their lead despite their dominance and possession.
