At the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium two clubs stuck in the lower part of the standings will meet. Sevilla and Girona are separated by just one point, and both sides are desperate for a win to move away from the relegation zone.
Sevilla
The season has gone very badly for Sevilla: in their last six league matches they have suffered four defeats and earned only one victory. Their latest setback was the 1:4 loss to RCD Mallorca, where Matías Almeyda’s side fell apart in the second half and conceded three times. Results at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium have also been poor, with an alternation of wins and defeats. Over 11 home matches the hosts have recorded four victories and six losses. However, they are capable not only of conceding but also of scoring, with a goal difference of 16:17.
Girona
Girona made a poor start to the season but have since recovered. Over the last five league rounds they have lost only once – 0:1 against Real Oviedo. That match was also the first in this spell in which Míchel’s side failed to score. The attack has picked up: over these five games they have scored six goals, with Vladyslav Vanat netting four of them. Away from home the visitors have been solid, winning three of their last four matches, including a 2:0 victory over RCD Espanyol, who are in the LaLiga top six. However, their defence is still unreliable, with 36 goals conceded – the second-worst record in the league.
Sevilla vs Girona Prediction
Given the squad and psychological problems on both sides, this match should be fairly even. However, at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium Sevilla usually raise their level, and this is a chance for them to break their poor run. Girona, for their part, are vulnerable in defence and often lose concentration towards the end of matches. We expect Both Teams to Score in this fixture.
