Girona vs Villarreal Preview and Team News
Girona Team News
Girona’s winless streak of eleven events finally ended last Monday. Stuani scored the only goal of the game in the 10th minute against Mallorca. The victory was important as it leaves the squad 15th, with relegation more unlikely than ever. Girona have not won in La Liga since early February, when they defeated Las Palmas 2-1.
Despite his advanced age, Cristhian Stuani has been fundamental for Girona this term, scoring 25% of the club’s total goals. This partially explains the team’s struggles, as the striker is approaching forty years old. Michel was relieved by the victory. “It felt like a liberation after three months without a win”, he says.

This also happens to be Girona’s worst streak without a win in the club’s history, an indicator of how important the success against Mallorca was. Only four games remain, and the match against Real Valladolid is essential to avoiding relegation.
Bryan Gil, Gabriel Misehouy, and Ricard Artero are sidelined with injuries. Donny Van de Beek and Miguel Gutiérrez are waiting for medical clearance.

Villarreal Team News
Villarreal defeated Osasuna 4-2 after leading 3-0 by half-time, propelled by an Ayoze Pérez goal in the first minute. The team dominated the first encounter, aided by the return of Alejandro Baena, who registered an assist. His presence was heartfelt in previous matches, as the squad was left without his creative spark.
A victory was principal for Villarreal to secure Champions League football, as they currently sit 5th with 58 points in La Liga, one ahead of Real Betis. Alejandro Baena has yet to receive an offer from Atlético de Madrid despite their interest, while he doesn’t let it distract from Villarreal’s bid for the Champions League.
Ilias Akhomach remains sidelined, while Kiko and Raul Albiol are awaiting medical clearance.
Villarreal Predicted line-up vs Girona
Villarreal Predicted line-up vs Girona (4-2-3-1): Junior; Cardona, Costa, Foyth, Kikoe; Gueye, Parejo; Comesaña, Pépé, Pérez; Barry.
Bet hereGirona vs Villarreal Prediction
- Prediction: Villarreal to win
- Odds: 2.14 (22Bet)
- Score Prediction: Girona 0-3 Villarreal
Girona finally won an event after three months, but it’s unlikely they can do it again. Villarreal are one of the best offensive teams in the league (excluding Barcelona and Real Madrid), relying on a solid 4-4-2 block.
The return of Baena means the hosts will have to find a way to stop one of the most productive playmakers in the club. He needed less than 90’ to provide his teammates with an assist.
This is one of the few ‘easy’ matches left for Villarreal, a side fighting for the last Champions League spot. For Girona, the focus will be on the game against Real Valladolid, despite the home advantage.
Girona vs Villarreal Betting Tip
- Pick: Villarreal to keep a clean sheet
- Odds: 2.65 (22Bet)
It’s not often Villarreal come home with a clean sheet, but this may be one of the opportunities. Their 4-4-2 is the ideal set-up against Girona’s transitional weaknesses on the flanks, especially with Barry and Baena combining.
The home squad often get caught out of position in counter-attacks, due to the lack of solid defensive players on the flanks. With Blind struggling to keep up with pacey players, it’s likely he’ll get outclassed by Barry.
