Girona, hopefuls for the Spanish top flight title, will be seeking three points in their away game against Almeria, favorites for relegation, on Sunday afternoon.
The hosts narrowly escaped relegation in the 2022-23 season, finishing only one point above the drop zone. However, they might not be as fortunate this season. Jagoba Arrasate’s team entered the Christmas break after a streak of 18 league games without a victory, and their situation worsened post-break, with a loss to Osasuna last week.
Meanwhile, Girona has emerged as the unexpected highlight of the 2022-23 La Liga season. The team, also known as The Whites and Reds, currently stands with 48 points, equal with the league leaders, Real Madrid. They have suffered only one loss in this La Liga season. Managed by Míchel, the team has managed to avoid defeat in their last ten league matches. Coming off a 4-3 victory against Atlético Madrid in their last match, the team is expected to enter the upcoming game brimming with confidence.
Almeria vs Girona Betting Tips: Girona to win
This season, Almeria has been the worst team in La Liga by a significant margin. They are the only team in the division that has yet to secure a win, and they have let in the third highest number of goals on their home ground under Jagoba Arrasate’s management.
This season, Girona has exhibited impressive performance both at home and away. Only Real Madrid has a superior away record for this season, with the visiting team outperformed by them. Míchel’s team can brag about securing ten victories in their most recent eleven away matches in all competitions.
Another factor that leads us to predict Girona as the probable victors of this match is their recent performance against the opposing team. Blanquivermells have triumphed in three out of the last four encounters and have won the last two matches with a combined score of 11-4.
