Girona vs Rayo Vallecano Predictions

Following 21 rounds of action, Girona sat second in La Liga and were just a point off Real Madrid. They have now dropped to six points off the summit.

After thrashing Sevilla 5-1, they lost 3-2 at Mallorca in the Copa del Rey. A 1-0 win at Celta Vigo and a 0-0 home draw vs Real Sociedad followed in La Liga.

Round 24 saw a damaging 4-0 thrashing at title rivals Real Madrid. They lost 3-2 at Athletic Bilbao last time out despite having had 69% possession.

Coach Salvador Funez is without veteran defender Daley Blind. Veteran centre back David Lopez is doubtful.

Midfielder Joe Roca and winger Toni Villa are both injured after ACL knee surgery.

Girona Predicted Lineup

Gazzaniga; Martinez, E. Garcia, Juanpe, Gutierrez; Martin, A. Garcia, Herrera; Tsigankov, Dovbyk, Savio.

Rayo Vallecano sit 14th in La Liga with an eight-point gap to the drop zone. They’re winless in six league fixtures but they’ve taken 16 of their 25 points on the road.

A 2-0 home loss to Las Palmas preceded a 0-0 draw at Real Sociedad. Three successive 2-1 defeats followed: at Atletico Madrid, at home to Sevilla and at Mallorca.

Last time out, they drew 1-1 at home to Real Madrid. They limited Los Blancos to 1.12 xG.

Right winger Isi Palazon is suspended for this match. Left back Pep Chavarria remains doubtful after a hamstring injury.

Coach Inigo Perez has a question mark over young midfielder Diego Mendez.

Dimitrievski; Balliu, Hernandez, Lejeune, Chavarria; Palazon, Valentin, Lopez, Garcia; Trejo, De Tomas.

Verdict

Girona v Rayo Vallecano

I'm backing a Girona win. I'm tipping them to score over 2.5 goals against a leaky defence.
