One goal scored by Griezmann was enough for Atletico to overtake Barcelona, who were only able to draw at Rayo Vallecano headquarters. Atletico has the opportunity to stay away from Barcelona because they still have one match left. Real Madrid did not experience the slightest difficulty at Cadiz headquarters. Three goals were scored against Cadiz and took them to the top of the standings.
It was very interesting to see the game shown by Girona. Five consecutive wins in La Liga were good capital for Girona when they hosted Bilbao. They are in a big challenge, if they fail to maintain their positive trend, they will be in danger of losing first position.
Bilbao is also a very difficult opponent, although they play away with varying success, but we can say for sure that today’s match will not be easy for Girona. But in any case, they only need a victory, since even a draw will leave Real in the lead, and in case of defeat, Athletic will have a chance to equal them on points. In such matches, Girona must show their character and this will be decisive in whether Girona can continue to hold on leadership, or Real will take over this initiative.
Although indeed, I think on paper it looks like Girona will still manage to beat Bilbao in this match. I also realize, that Bilbao is not a weak team at all because yes, at this moment Bilbao is also in 6th place in the La Liga standings with 24 points, 10 points different from Girona at this time. But it seems, Bilbao also has a pretty good ability when playing away, although not always winning but so far Bilbao is able to press not to concede many goals when Bilbao plays away. But yes, because at the same time Girona is in a good trend and has high goal aggressiveness, it looks like this match will still have several goals and maybe Girona will still get points whether Girona win or draw.
