Girona vs Celta Vigo Preview

 

Girona vs Celta Vigo

Competition – Spanish Primera

Stadium – Municipal Montilivi

Date: 27th February 2018

Kick-off time – 20:30 GMT

This has been a fantastic first season for Girona having just joined the La Liga last season.

However, last weekend they had a rude awakening at the hands of their Catalan neighbours when they fell 6-1 to Barcelona.

That game is better seen as a one-off because they seem to have met the La Liga leaders in red hot form.

This game against Celta Vigo gives them the chance to get back to winning ways as soon as possible.

Girona have a 50% home win ratio this season, scoring 1.75 goals per game at home and keeping a clean sheet in 40% of their home games also.

Celta have considerable quality particularly in attack, but they are one team that flatters to deceive.

Their last game was against another promoted side and they fell 3-0 to Getafe.

Celta have the 5th best scoring record in the league this season, yet they have lost in 54% of their games this year.

This game is another match that could determine whether or not they can qualify for the Europa League come the end of the season.

They currently occupy 7th position, but their host can replace them if they lose this game.
