Midweek action takes place in Spain this week, as Girona look for a huge return to winning ways to move up to seventh in the standings. Celta Vigo will have the home advantage, as they bid to end a four-game losing run and edge closer to securing their top-flight status.
La Liga Preview
Girona comes into the final three matches of the La Liga season with important points up for grabs. The Spanish side remains in the hunt for a European spot this term, but they currently sit two points behind Athletic Bilbao. However, they could move up to seventh with a victory on Tuesday evening. They will be looking to bounce back to winning ways after suffering a defeat in their previous fixture.
However, that loss was their only defeat over their previous five outings. Girona was slightly unfortunate to lose their previous fixture against Villarreal, with the traveling side snatching maximum points with virtually the last kick of the game. Girona’s only goal in that defeat was netted after 24 minutes, with David Lopez finding the back of the net.
This midweek fixture will also be an important fixture for Celta Vigo, as they remain locked in the relegation battle at the opposite end of the standings. The Spanish side has lost each of their previous four matches, and they currently sit only four points clear of the bottom three places. But, they could edge toward safety with maximum points this week against Girona in their penultimate home match of the season.
Their most recent loss was suffered on the road, as they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Athletic Bilbao. The winning goal for the hosts in that fixture was scored ten minutes into the second half. It was also scored at a crucial time, as it came just four minutes after Celta had dragged themselves level through Jorgen Strand Larsen.
Celta Vigo vs Girona Head to Head
There is little to separate these sides based on the previous clashes in La Liga. Both sides have recorded two wins in the previous four encounters. However, three of the five La Liga clashes have been won by the side with home advantage.
Celta Vigo vs Girona Prediction
This will be a big fixture in La Liga for both these sides on Tuesday. However, a chance will be taken on Girona to record a third win in five matches against Celta Vigo.
