Team News

Girona
Almeria
  • Girona should be relatively unchanged from their winning formula eleven that sees them second in the league with 22 points.
  • Yan Couto should be straight into the team - the 21-year-old having made his Brazil debut on Tuesday.
  • With their only out and out strikers both injured (Kone & Suarez), Almeria could rely on Sergio Arribas in a type of false nine role against league high-flyers Girona.
  • Adri Embarba could well return to the flanks for the first time in three weeks.

Prediction

  • Girona are stellar at home this season, only having lost once.
  • Almeria, on the other hand, have not won a match in nine attempts, but signs of improvement are filtering through under new boss, Alberto Lasarte.
  • Largie Ramazani, who is alone responsible for 38% of Almeria's big chances created this season, will be the swaying factor here as to whether the visitors can scrape a point from this one. A comfortable Girona victory is the most likely outcome here.
