Third-placed Girona FC will welcome relegation candidates Cádiz CF to the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi for a one-on-one La Liga contest. Kickoff is slated for 19:00 GMT.
Key Highlights
Girona Looking To Preserve Their Impressive Home Record
In the last ten home matches, Girona has not lost any games, with eight of them being wins. They have also scored at least two goals in seven of their last ten home matches. Given Cadiz’s struggles this season, they are the ideal team to face after stumbling in their 3-1 loss away to Atletico Madrid last time out.
Cadiz Facing Awful Away Record
Cadiz has registered zero wins in their last ten away matches and failed to score in six of them. Four points away from safety, Cadiz’s only chance at escaping relegation is registering wins and draws and hoping Celta Vigo stumbles in their remaining matches. The contest against Girona, however, does not hold much promise, given their struggles on the road.
While a win may not be on the cards for them, Cadiz is capable of seeing out a draw. Their recent games have been tough fixtures, but against Barcelona, they demonstrated their resilience. Barcelona could only manage a 1-0 win as Cadiz dug in with their tidiness in defense, preventing Barca from adding to their tally despite having the majority of the ball (63% ball possession) and creating the most chances (12 shots with only 2 on target).
