Why Bet on Girona?

Third place for Girona is a dream in itself, but there is still room to improve the position in LaLiga, and that is the goal that Míchel’s team can have in the rest of the competition. They beat Las Palmas 2-0 last time out, with goals from Artem Dovbyk and David Lopez. 

Just as the club is a surprise, the same can be said of Ukrainian striker Dovbyk, who is the tournament’s top scorer with 19 goals. He has also provided five assists. The number nine is two goals clear of Norway’s Alexander Sörloth and England’s Jude Bellingham. 

At home, Girona is the third team with the most points (41), surpassed only by Atlético Madrid (46) and Real Madrid (44). The numbers go like this: 13 wins, two draws, and only one defeat. Overall, this club is the second-best offense, scoring 69 goals, one more than Barcelona. Its defense has conceded 39 goals. 

The club’s injured players are Juanpe, Aleix García, Miguel Gutiérrez, and Arnau Martínez. 

Why Bet on Barcelona?

Barcelona has already run out of chances to win any tournament this season. They recently lost El Clásico to Real Madrid, and LaLiga was sentenced. The Culés are coming from a 4-2 victory over Valencia, with a hat-trick from their most decisive player, the Pole Robert Lewandowski. The other goal was scored by Fermín López.

Xavi’s men are second with 73 points, 11 behind Real Madrid, but only two points ahead of Girona, which is why it is so important to win at Montilivi. In addition, the Catalans have a debt pending against this rival, who defeated them 4-2 at home in the first round of Spanish soccer. 

Barcelona’s defense is not in the top three, but they have the third-best offense in LaLiga, with Lewandowski being their best converter at 16 goals. Away from home, the Barça is the second club that has taken the most points, with a total of 33 units. It has taken 10 of the last 15 points in that condition. 

Gavi, Alejandro Balde, and Frenkie de Jong are absent due to injury.
