Team Form and Analysis:
Girona has endured a nightmare start to their LaLiga campaign, currently sitting at the very bottom of the table with just one point from their opening four matches. The hosts have been particularly porous in defense, conceding a league-high 11 goals. However, there was a glimmer of hope in their last match, a 1-1 away draw against Celta Vigo, where they were denied a win by a late penalty. Manager Míchel will be looking for a much-needed victory to turn his team’s fortunes around. Girona will be without key players like Juan Carlos, David López, and Viktor Tsygankov due to injury.
Levante, meanwhile, has had a mixed start to their campaign since their promotion to LaLiga, with one point from their first four matches. The visitors have shown flashes of brilliance, including a stoppage-time defeat to Alavés and a late collapse against Real Betis. Levante’s main problem has been their defense, having conceded nine goals so far this season. The visitors will be without key players like Alan Matturro and Goduine Koyalipou due to injury.
Head-to-Head:
The historical head-to-head record between these two clubs is in favor of Levante, who have won five of their 12 competitive meetings. However, the last four competitive meetings between these two sides have ended in a draw. The last time the two teams met at the Estadi Montilivi, Levante secured a 2-1 victory, and Girona is still searching for their first-ever top-flight home victory against them.
Player to Watch:
Girona: All eyes will be on their key attacking player Vladyslav Vanat, who has been in good form and scored in their last match. The hosts will need him to be at his best to break down the Levante defense.
Levante: The focus for Levante will be on their key attacking players Iván Romero and Karl Etta Eyong, both of whom scored in their last match. The visitors will be looking to this duo to provide a much-needed attacking spark.
Prediction:
Given both teams’ defensive struggles and their desperate need for a win, this match promises to be a high-scoring affair. While Girona has the home advantage, their poor defensive record and injury woes could be exploited by Levante. A high-scoring draw or a narrow away victory for Levante seems like a very plausible outcome.
