Girona
It’s one of the revelations of the season. He occupies 10th place in La Liga and stays away from the relegation area.
The moment is the one that does not recommend it. He has won a single match of the last five in the championship.
The last round drew no goals in Malaga.
He impressed the previous two home games, with Las Palmas (6-0) and Getafe (1-0).
Jose Aurelio Suarez is the only absent in the host camp.
Probable team (5-3-2): Bono; Bernardo, Juanpe, Muniesa, Mojica, Aday, Pere Pons, Granell, Portu, Borja Garcaa, Stuani.
Athletic Bilbao
It makes a very weak season, well below expectations. He is 12 in La Liga.
It has a point less than Girona.
It does not cross a bad period. Do not lose in the 10-stage championship. Interestingly to mention that in seven of them drew.
Last round failed to beat Eibar (1-1).
There are some real problems. You will miss Iker Muniain, while Kepa, De Marcos and Mikel Balenziaga remain uncertain.
Probable Team (4-2-3-1): Herrerin; Saborit, Inigo Martinez, Nunez, Lekue, Iturraspe, Mikel Rico, Raul Garcia, Williams, Susaeta, Aduriz.
Direct meetings
The tournament match was the only official match between the two.
Bilbao was then forced (2-0).
My tip for Girona vs Athletic Bilbao
The Basques were impressed with the tour and I would not be surprised to do it now. I bet they will not lose.
We have said above that the latest results were not the best for Girona. Instead, Athletic does not lose 10 stages.
I count on Bilbao’s offensive appetite lately. It should be noted that the Basque have scored at least twice in four of the previous five championship shifts.
It is clear that Bilbao has a more valuable and more experienced batch. I think it will do better in the second part of the season, when the tension will be higher.
