Game Preview
On December 10, a major La Liga match between Barcelona and Girona, the two Catalan adversaries who are now ranked third and second, will take place at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys.
After starting the season with a 1-1 tie against Rayo Vallecano, Barcelona went on to win 7 points from their following 3 games. Then came a 2-1 victory over FC Porto, followed by a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid. Barcelona claimed 5 of their most recent 6 La Liga games at a neutral setting, netting 9 and allowing 5 along the way. They didn’t draw a single game, but they did lose one. The defending champions have played 15 league games this season, going with 10 wins, 4 for draws, and 1 for defeat. With 34 points, they are in 3rd position in the standings, 4 points below leaders Real Madrid and second-place Girona. This campaign, head coach Xavi has been under fire, but he has been able to guide the squad into the Champions League knockout phase. As a result, the La Liga giants’ matchup with Royal Antwerp in Belgium next week will be pressure-free.
At the conclusion of November, Girona were subjected to a 1-1 tie by Athletic Bilbao in La Liga. However, they recovered magnificently the next weekend, defeating Valencia 2-1, and in their last game, they defeated Orihuela 5-2 in the Copa del Rey to guarantee their place in the following round of play. After this match, they have 2 league games against Alaves and Real Betis. It will be interesting to see where they are in the standings going into the Christmas break. A 2-1 victory over Valencia was ruined by the injury of star midfielder Yangel Herrera. Given that Girona has been scoring multiple goals in their last few games, they are probably going to continue playing in an attacking manner, to try and get the victory in this upcoming game.
