Alaves vs Girona Soccer Prediction

Thanks to the umpteenth demonstration of defensive solidity, last weekend the Alaves managed to beat 1-0 the Eibar all’Ipurua and get the second consecutive victory. Abelardo’s team has not scored for three days, and is now in fifth position with ten points ahead of the relegation threshold, to be administered in the remaining six league games. After the game against Girona, in this midweek round, next Sunday will play in Gran Canaria the last of the direct clashes, against Las Palmas, and even a draw would be fine.

On the other hand, Girona did not win a match against the Deportivo La Coruna, more than a month ago. After that game, taking a draw against Levante, he lost three games against opponents who proved superior: Real Madrid, Real Sociedad and Betis, who last night managed to win 1-0 at Montilivi (third victory) away in a row).

At the press conference, the Alaves coach said that there will be changes compared to the most recently used training. It is possible that the right-back full-back, Martin Aguirregabiria, may rest for a turn, and he will miss the trip to Gran Canaria in case of a new caution. The midfielder on loan from Villarreal, Alfonso Pedraza, will also miss because of a slight sprained ankle. There will also be turnover in Girona, said coach Machin. In addition there will not be in midfield Alex Granell, suspended.

The probable formations

ALAVÉS (4-4-2): Pacheco; Alexis Ruano, Ely, Laguardia, Ruben Duarte; Daniel Torres, Tomas Pina, Burgui, Hernan Perez; Guidetti, Munir.
GIRONA (5-2-3): Yassine Bounou; Mojica, Muniesa, Juanpe, Espinosa, Aday; Aleix Garcia, Pere Pons; Borja García (or David Timor), Portu, Stuani.
