The weekend La Liga action begins on Friday the 17th of February with a meeting between Girona FC and UD Almería.
The match will be played at the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi and the hosts begin the game in 11th place on 24 points while the visitors are in 15th place on 22 points.
Girona FC come into the match on the back of a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Cadiz last weekend.
It was a disappointing result against a team currently below them in the table and Girona FC fell a goal behind in the 6th minute and conceded a second goal before half time. Girona FC failed to get back into the game in the second half.
That result means Girona FC have lost 3 of their 4 most recent fixtures, all of which have been in La Liga. The losses have come against Villarreal and Cadiz away plus Barcelona at home. Girona FC have recorded 1 win in their last 4 games and that came at home against Valencia.
Trends show Girona FC have won only 2 of their last 10 matches in all competitions. They have won 2 of their 7 most recent La Liga games and are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 league matches on home soil. Both teams have scored in 7 of Girona FC’s 9 most recent home La Liga fixtures.
UD Almería make the trip to the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi having lost 3-2 at home against Real Betis in La Liga last weekend. UD Almería fell behind once in the first half and once in the second half, equalising both times but having conceded a third goal in the 70th minute, UD Almería could not find another equaliser in the final 20 minutes.
UD Almería have won only 1 of their 7 most recent competitive fixtures. The win came over Espanyol in La Liga and there have been 3 defeats in those 7 matches, coming at Rayo Vallecano plus at home against Real Sociedad and Real Betis.
Away form in the league shows UD Almería have been struggling and they have failed to win any of their last 17 away La Liga games. They have picked up only 2 points from the last 27 available on the road and both teams have scored in 4 of their last 6 away league matches.
Team news and Girona FC are without injured defender Yan Couto. They also have doubts over the fitness of David Lopez, Reinier Jesus Carvalho, and Ibrahima Kebe.
UD Almería have no injury or suspension concerns ahead of this game so should be at full strength.
Girona FC have been difficult to beat in recent home league games whereas UD Almería have been struggling badly on the road. Just one goal could be enough for the hosts to take maximum points and edge further clear of the relegation zone.
