Prediction: 0-1
Girona
Extremadura will try to claim a major scalp in the Copa del Rey round 1 when they take on Girona at Estadio Francisco de la Hera on Wednesday. The Tercera RFEF side are fully focused on the league as they are eyeing promotion, but they will surely fight tooth and nail against the Primera Division outfit. A man to watch in the home team will be talented forward Marco Gonzalez, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late.
The Catalans, on the other hand, are competing on three fronts this season and we are positive that boss Michel is going to shuffle his pack following a 1-0 loss at Las Palmas. All Kim, Blind, and Ba are in line for recalls, while the likes of Ruiz, Tsygankov, Romeu, Portu, Garcia, and Artero remain in the recovery room. Anyhow, Girona have enough strength in depth to defeat the lower-league side in the Spanish Cup round 1.
Highlighted Team (Girona):
After several unsuccessful attempts, finally secured promotion to Primera Division at the end of the 2016/2017 season. The Catalan outfit finished the campaign in second place in the standings, 14 points behind Levante and only two clear of third-placed Getafe. Girona play their home games at Montilivi and the capacity of the venue is 9.286.
Speaking of the club history, Girona were founded in the café Norat in La Rambla of Girona on July 23, 1930 and they played their first official game against Colonia Artigas. A number of Spanish coaches were in charge of the team in the past, but it has to be noted that Uruguayan tactician Dagoberto Moll (1965/1966) and Karoly Plattko (1948/1949) of Hungary were in charge of the club as well.
The Catalan team wear white shirts with red stripes when playing at home, while the colour of their shorts is blue. The team’s away kits are blue and black and Sporting Gijon are considered one of Girona’s fiercest rivals.
