The match between Girona and FC Barcelona in the 2024/25 La Liga season will be played on Sunday, September 15, 2024 at 16:15 hoursThe meeting will take place at the Montilivi Municipal Stadium in Girona, as part of day 5 of the competition
Below we leave you with five possible predictions for this match:
FC Barcelona are favourites, but Girona have been very good in recent seasons, even beating the Catalans twice in 2023-2024. However, with Lewandowski in great form and a rejuvenated team, a narrow victory is expected for Barcelona, perhaps by a one-goal margin. Girona will not make it easy for them, but the Blaugrana’s talent will be decisive.
Robert Lewandowski remains one of Barça’s most lethal weapons. Against Girona, he is very likely to take advantage of his ability to impose himself in the opposition’s box and score at least one goal. His experience and his goal-scoring instinct make him the main candidate to open the scoring.
Following the usual trend, Barcelona will likely dominate possession, averaging over 60%. The Barça style of play is centred around ball control and Girona are likely to look for opportunities on the counterattack. The midfield battle will be key for the Blaugranas to maintain their dominance.
Although Girona and Barcelona games are usually intense, we don’t expect too many yellow cards in this game. Both teams prioritize technical football over physicality, and we’re likely to see a fluid game, with fewer interruptions for hard fouls. A projection of around 3-4 yellow cards seems reasonable.
Barcelona’s young talent Lamine Yamal could be one of the big surprises of the match. His ability to break down the wing and create constant danger makes him a key player in the Blaugrana’s attack. It wouldn’t be surprising if he assists or even scores a goal in this match.
