Valencia vs Girona Prediction
Valencia Form
Only a single draw prevents Valencia from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short in a 1-0 defeat against Athletic Club, before drawing 1-1 with Villarreal. They came up empty-handed once again when Atletico Madrid ran out as 3-0 winners. Valencia didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six LaLiga games at the Estadio Mestalla. They have a record of two draws and four defeats, in which they conceded nine and scored four goals.
Girona go into a new season as candidates for the podium, but will count themselves lucky to achieve more than a third place.
Girona Form
Girona have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it started with a 0-2 win against Sevilla. Unable to follow that up, they went down 1-4 against Barcelona, before suffering another loss in a 1-0 match against Paris Saint-Germain. Girona won half their previous six away matches in the LaLiga, as well as seeing two draws and suffering one defeat. They scored ten goals whilst conceding seven.
While a title battle is perhaps a long shot, a top three finish does not look beyond Girona, should they catch some strong momentum in this early phase of the campaign.
It seems both Girona and Valencia have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Saturday, and we are rooting for goals.
Valencia are looking at a record of zero wins, one draw and four defeats in the LaLiga this season. Girona enjoy a record of two wins, one draw and two defeats in the LaLiga.
