Prediction: 1-1
Burgos
Girona and Burgos face each other at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi in the La Liga2 round 21. The two teams are level on points in the standings, meaning that a close encounter is on the cards in Catalonia. Girona aim to build on the Copa del Rey win over Huesca, where head coach Michel rested several first-team regulars. Both Samu Saiz and Stuani return to the starting XI, meaning that the opposition defenders should have the duo at bay.
All Garcia, Sarmiento, Moreno, Terrats, Urena, and Junca miss out for the hosts. Burgos, on the other hand, have been in a fine form in La Liga2 of late, with the team beating all Malaga, Real Sociedad B, and Fuenlabrada in the previous three league fixtures. Considering that the hosts head into the match with a severely-weakened squad, we are tempted to put our money on draw.
