Girona vs Almeria Prediction: Don’t expect a high-productive encounter

The 22nd round of the Spanish Football Championship will open with a match between Girona and Almeria. Both teams lost their last meetings, both occupy a place at the bottom of the standings of the Spanish championship, i.e., they are essentially competitors for survival.

Girona can be called a low-scoring team. In the last four games with the Catalans, TO (2.5) has not been reached. During this period, Girona lost to Villarreal, Barcelona, and Cadiz and minimally beat Valencia 1:0. Before the 22nd round, Girona was 11th in the division with only 24 points, only four more than Valencia in the relegation zone. The density of teams at the bottom of the table is surprisingly high. Two or three bad rounds, and Girona could well slide into the bottom three. The Catalans have the 7th home statistic in the league, +5=3-3, 17:15 goal difference.

Almeria lost their last two matches - on the road to Rayo Vallecano 0:2 and the home field to Betis 2:3. After those defeats, the visitors slipped down to 15th. Almeria has 22 points, two points more than Valencia. Almeria has 19 statistics on the road; only Elche has worse statistics. This team lost seven times in 10 games and three times played in a draw with a goal difference of 6:19.

Girona looks preferable to their opponent. The Catalans look good in home games and have good statistics in the native walls. Almeria is weak on the road, and the guests lost their last two matches. In this case, we will not bet on a clear Girona victory. The draw in this match is quite possible but unlikely. And as for the total, we do not expect a high-scoring game here.
