Girona vs Atletico Madrid Preview and Team News
Girona Team News
Girona head into their final matchday of the La Liga season having secured their place in the top division.
Currently 16th with 41 points, they are safe from relegation. However, the team have encountered recent difficulties like their 3-2 loss to Real Sociedad.
A notable development is the emergence of 19-year-old Ukrainian goalkeeper Vladyslav Krapyvtsov. He made his La Liga debut against Real Sociedad, stepping in for the ever-reliable Paulo Gazzaniga, who had played 109 consecutive matches.
Although Krapyvtsov conceded three goals during the game, he made four significant saves, demonstrating his potential as a goalkeeper.

Cristhian Stuani, a veteran striker, has scored 11 goals this term, including five in the last six matches. His experience and goal-scoring ability are crucial for Girona’s fight for survival.
Despite facing challenges like the departure of key players and the rigors of European competition, Girona have maintained their commitment to an attacking, possession-based style of play.
The coach primarily emphasizes control of the midfield and fluid transitions between defence and attack. Míchel has demonstrated tactical flexibility, adjusting formations to a 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-3 when necessary to exploit opponent weaknesses or to adapt to in-game situations.

Overall, Girona’s approach this season reflects a commitment to proactive football, but without top-class players, the team couldn’t repeat last term’s achievement.
Additionally, the club face several injuries. Bryan Gil and Donny van de Beek are both out, while Ricard Artero is recovering from an ankle injury and is expected back in mid-June. Gabriel Misehouy and Miguel Gutiérrez are doubtful. These absences have impacted the squad depth for the season finale.

Atletico Madrid Team News
Atlético Madrid have secured a Champions League spot, currently sitting third in La Liga. However, their away form is inconsistent, with only one win in their previous eight away fixtures and no goals scored in the last three.
Despite these challenges, the squad show great attacking play at home. They have four victories with the score 15-3, including a 4-1 win over Betis.
The mental aspect of Atlético’s performance on the road is in question. Diego Simeone acknowledged the team’s lack of aggression and intensity in away games, stating that he failed to motivate the players to replicate their home form.

This psychological barrier has led to low confidence and cohesion on the pitch and subpar performances.
In away events, the midfield is often overrun, and the defences show lapses in concentration, leading to goals conceded from set-pieces and counterattacks. The offence have also lacked the sharpness and creativity seen on local home turf, with a noticeable drop in goal-scoring opportunities and conversions.

Addressing these issues will be crucial for the team to improve their traveling form and compete effectively in all competitions next season.
In terms of injuries, Pablo Barrios is doubtful due to a recent head injury sustained during the match against Osasuna. César Azpilicueta is also uncertain for selection, and Rodrigo Riquelme is dealing with physical discomfort.

Bet hereGirona vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
- Pick: Total Under 3.5
- Odds: 1.53 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Girona 1-1 Atletico Madrid
Girona demonstrated a tendency towards low-scoring games, especially at home. In their last five matches, only one has seen more than three goals scored. They play with a structured defence and controlled possession, often limiting the number of nets.
Atlético Madrid are renowned for a disciplined defensive setup, particularly when away from their fans. Despite their great attacking numbers at home, their time on the road is more conservative.
Historically, encounters between these two sides have been tight. In their previous five head-to-heads, only one exceeded three goals. Considering both teams’ recent form, fewer than 3.5 is a likely result.
Girona vs Atletico Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Cristhian Stuani to score
- Odds: 2.75 (22Bet)
At 38 years old, Cristhian Stuani has netted 11 balls in 31 La Liga appearances, leading the team in scoring. He demonstrated a remarkable scoring frequency of one goal every 88.2 minutes.
Stuani’s proficiency is further highlighted by his shot conversion rate of 34.5% and a shooting accuracy of 62%, placing him among the top finishers in La Liga. His consistent ability to score, even when coming off the bench, makes him an important player for Girona’s attack.
Facing an Atlético Madrid side that struggled defensively in away matches, conceding goals in recent fixtures, Stuani’s experience and form position him well to capitalize on any defensive mistakes.
