Team News

Girona
Real Madrid
  • Yan Couto should come in to replace Arnau Martinez, who played midweek but is still being eased back in from injury.
  • Daley Blind should start at left-back.
  • In midfield and attack, Girona should go unchanged from the formula that has seen them score more goals than any other team in La Liga this season.
  • Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba will be unavailable with injuries. Nacho and Carvajal will have to fill in as Real's injury crisis continues.
  • Vinicius Junior should return to the starting eleven for Real's most important match of the season.
  • Fran Garcia and Jude Bellingham should also return to the starting team.

Prediction

  • All of a sudden, Girona vs Real Madrid is the most pivotal game of the season so far.
  • Girona are top of the league, with Real sitting closely behind in second place. What's more - and with the visitors ongoing debilitating injury crisis - Girona should be the favourites in this match, too.
  • The hosts scored four goals the last time they met this weekend's opponents back in may, winning 4-2.
  • For the first time this season, Madrid will feel like under dogs going into Saturday's clash.
