Girona vs Espanyol Prediction: Expect a Draw

Saturday's pool of the next round of the Spanish La Liga will begin with the match between Girona and Espanyol. The bookmakers are on the side of Girona.

The team completed the last cycle of matches incorrectly, with two defeats to Getafe and Atletico and a draw against Rayo Vallecano. As a result, Girona dropped to 12th place in the Spanish league table with 31 points, five more than Valencia in the relegation zone. Girona's home statistics are eighth in the division, +6=3-4, 23:18 goal difference.

They ended their last series with three straight losses to Valladolid, Real Madrid, and Celta. As a result, before the start of the 27th round, Espanyol was in 17th position in the championship standings with an asset of 27 points, only one point more than Valencia, which, as noted above, is located in the relegation zone. Espanyol has the 11th away statistic in the division, 14 points from 13 games, +3=5-5, 15:19 goal difference.

Girona: Gazzaniga - Martinez, Bueno, Lopez, Juanpe - Romeu - Tsigankov, Martin, Garcia, Riquelme, Castellanos.

Espanyol: Fernandez - Gil, Montes, Gragera, Gomez - Vidal, Darder, Souza, Suarez - Joselu, Braithwaite

Regarding motivation, the advantage is on the side of Espanyol, which is only one point away from the relegation zone. In this case, from the tournament point of view, Girona may be satisfied with a draw on Saturday that will keep the handicap between the Catalan teams at the current level. We would not be surprised if the upcoming match ends in a draw, and we expect the teams to exchange goals.
