How long will the Gironin dream last?
When a modest team surprises with a series of results much better than expected, as in the case of Girona, the emotional factor is fundamental and the moment any doubt arises, something can go wrong. That turning point could be the 1-1 scoreline drawn at home against Athletic Club last Monday, after six wins in a row.
It is true that Valencia is not going through a very positive moment and that it has not won away from home in LaLiga for three months, but at the same time it is difficult to point out a clear pattern of behavior and it has already proven its capabilities. to surprise, as it did with the 3-0 win over Atlético de Madrid.
Without daring to predict an end result, we can sense with greater certainty how the match will develop in the first minutes and opt for a draw at half-time, something that has happened in Girona’s last five matches and in a total of nine of their matches. 15 official matches this season, without forgetting that Valencia drew 0-0 against Celta de Vigo.
A more eventful second half
Taking into account that almost 60% of Girona’s goals in LaLiga this season have come after the break and that Valencia have scored almost 70% of the goals in the second half, it wouldn’t be surprising to see more goals in Montilivi during the second 45 minutes. . Furthermore, 10 of Girona’s 15 official matches so far this season have ended with goals scored by both teams, a pattern that has occurred in five of Valencia’s seven league visits, including the three most recent.
In this sense, Rubén Baraja prays for the speedy recovery of José Gayà, a fundamental piece in the defense, while Míchel rubs his hands because he can count on Artem Dovbyk again. The Ukrainian striker, eliminated in the draw against Athletic (mere coincidence?), has scored in three of his last four league games, including a double against Almería, and has contributed to the goal in eight of the fourteen goals scored by Girona in the last league game . five games played by the striker, thanks to his four goals and four assists.
