Girona - Celta

Match date: 03/01-21:00

Girona FC

A point gained last round by the Catalan team away from home, which allows them to get a bit closer to safety and extend their good run of results. Míchel’s team seems to have found the right path to follow and does not want to stray from it. The Madrid coach has been able to turn the situation around and place Girona in a position of stability and calm.

A duel of European aspirations awaits us in this match. Two teams with similar dynamics, both looking for three points to get a little closer to European spots. Míchel’s side has a golden opportunity to show they want to compete to play in European competition next season. Opposite them will be a Celta side that is doing very well. It is true that they will come from playing in the Europa League, and fatigue might work in favor of the Catalans.

Girona has good news, as their best player is back. Ounahi made an extraordinary impact in the 20 minutes he played in the last match, minutes that will surely catapult him into the starting eleven.

R.C. Celta de Vigo

Two huge points were earned last round by Real Club Celta at the Balaídos stadium against R.C.D Mallorca to consolidate their position in European places. Furthermore, the Vigo team climbed as high as the sixth position in the league table, in a week which was expected to be complicated after having played on Thursday in Athens in the Europa League against PAOK.

The team showed freshness in attack but it had to be – it seems immortal – D. Iago Aspas Juncal, who came off the bench to resolve the game with a late double.

It is worth highlighting the good contribution of those players not usually in the starting 11 such as Hugo Álvarez or Joseph Aidoo in defense as well as the performance in midfield of one of the winter market signings, the Uruguayan Matías Vecino.

The match against Girona at Estadi Montilivi also comes during a week of European competition, so it is very likely Claudio Giráldez will again make some changes per line to rest the regular starters (are there any with Giráldez?) in addition to replacing the absence due to card accumulation of Borja Iglesias at the tip of the Vigo attack – likely Ferrán Jutglá.

A duel between two teams in good form and on a run of results and play, with two coaches on the benches who like good, touch-based, controlled football. It will be interesting to see which of the two sides manages to impose themselves in this battle for possession and maintain clarity in the details and situations to be resolved that will surely arise in both areas.

Sunday 21:00 hours, the ball rolls.
