Team News

Almeria
Girona
  • Almeria only have Idrissu Baba absent on international duty and so should employ their strongest XI in this match.
  • Gonzalo Melero and Luis Suarez, both permanent fixtures in the first team, are still a few weeks away from a full recovery.
  • Viktor Tsygankov is injured and will be sidelined for this one. Valery Fernandez, who scored in Girona's 4-3 win over Atletico, should start on the left side of midfield.
  • Pablo Torre should keep his spot in midfield.
  • Artem Dovbyk, who won December's La Liga Player of The Month award, should continue his fantastic run of form at the top of the pitch.

Prediction

  • Girona put five past Almeria with ease in the reverse fixture back in September, having only lost once to Sunday's hosts in La Liga.
  • Almeria are now 11 points from safety, and murmurings are starting to voice themselves about potential relegation, already. The club are still without a single win all season.
  • Thus, any hope of a favourable result against a formidable force such as Girona this weekend could be still out of reach for the Andalusian side.
