Matchday 14 of La Liga between Girona and Real Madrid will take place on November 30 at the Montilivi Stadium. Girona vs. Real Madrid: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Girona
Last weekend, the team secured a valuable 1-1 away draw against Betis, who are among the top five. This result means Girona avoided defeat for the second consecutive La Liga match, and overall, the Catalans have lost only twice in their last eight league games (2 wins, 4 draws). It's worth noting that Michel Sanchez's side had a tough start to the season, collecting just one point from their first five La Liga matches. Due to this start, Girona is still in the relegation zone, currently in 18th place, trailing Osasuna only on tiebreakers. Additionally, Girona has conceded 25 goals this season, the worst record in the league.
- Girona's scoring streak in La Liga spans six matches.
- At least two goals have been scored in 13 of the club's last 15 league games.
- Both teams scored in five of Girona's last six La Liga matches.
Predicted lineup for Girona (4-5-1)
Paulo Gazzaniga – Arnau Martinez, Hugo Rincon, Vitor Reis, Alex Moreno – Axel Witsel, Ivan Martin, Azzedine Ounahi, Viktor Tsygankov, Bryan Gil – Vladyslav Vanat.
Unavailable due to injuries are goalkeepers Juan Carlos Martin and Vladyslav Krapivtsov, defenders David Lopez and Alejandro Frances, midfielders Donny van de Beek and Thomas Lemar, and forward Portu. Defender Daley Blind's participation is in doubt.
Real Madrid
Xabi Alonso's side has experienced a slight dip in form. Real Madrid won 10 of their first 11 La Liga matches, but have since drawn two consecutive games. Last week, they narrowly avoided defeat against Elche (2-2), equalizing twice late in the game. This marks the first time since February that Madrid has failed to win two consecutive league matches. As a result, Real Madrid remains at the top of the table, but their lead over Barcelona has decreased from five to one point. Notably, all of their dropped points this season have occurred away from home. In La Liga, Madrid has scored 28 goals, second only to Barcelona's 36. In terms of goals conceded (12), only Atletico Madrid and Villarreal (11 each) have better records.
- The team has scored in 28 of their last 29 La Liga matches.
- The club's unbeaten streak in this tournament spans six matches (4 wins, 2 draws).
- At least two goals have been scored in seven of Real Madrid's last nine away league games.
Predicted lineup for Real Madrid (3-5-2)
Thibaut Courtois – Raul Asencio, Dean Heysen, Alvaro Carreras – Trent Alexander-Arnold, Arda Güler, Jude Bellingham, Dani Ceballos, Fran Garcia – Rodrygo Goes, Kylian Mbappe.
Missing due to injuries are defenders Daniel Carvajal, Eder Militao, and David Alaba, as well as midfielder Franco Mastantuono. The participation of defenders Dean Heysen and Antonio Rudiger is in doubt.
Match Prediction: Girona vs. Real Madrid
Girona has significantly improved compared to their early-season form. Over their last eight La Liga matches, the club has suffered only two defeats, both by a narrow margin. Notably, these losses occurred away from home. At their own stadium, Michel Sanchez's side is unbeaten in their last four league matches (2 wins, 2 draws).
Meanwhile, Real Madrid has slowed down, dropping points in two consecutive league games for the first time in nine months. Despite some struggles in certain victories, Madrid has won by more than one goal in only one of their last five La Liga matches. In away games in this tournament, Real has managed to win by a margin of two goals or more in just one of their last six matches.
Prediction – Girona with a handicap (+1.5)
