Girona Vs Barcelona 2024 Preview
Barcelona have to win against Girona and this is the only way they can still win the league but they need to see the result of the Real Madrid vs Cadiz game.
The hopes of Barca’s La Liga title are still alive, at least on paper if Real Madrid loses all their remaining games and Barcelona wins all.
Girona are just 2 points behind the title holders which means a win against Barcelona at their home ground will put them in the 2nd place. They are a couple of wins away from qualifying for the new Champions League.
The Whites and Reds have already secured a place in the group stage of the next Europa League but Saturday’s win can confirm their Champions League spot for the next season.
Defeat against Real Madrid in the last El Clasico was Barca’s 4th defeat in La Liga this season widening the gap between the defending Champions and League Leaders. With 73 points in 33 games, they are in 2nd place.
Despite having the best start in the season, Girona lost 2 games in the last 5 league games. They played less draws (5) compared to the top two teams, Real Madrid (6) and Barcelona (7).
In the first leg of this season, Girona won by 4-2 against Barca and claimed all 3 points against the current La Liga Champions. So Barca have a great chance to reverse the result.
Barcelona won against Valencia in their last League game with the help of Lewandowski’s hat-trick and a goal from Fermin Lopez. On the other hand, Girona also scored 4 goals in the last game and conceded just 1 against Cadiz.
