Real Madrid won their first match against Girona. They didn't just win, they crushed Girona in the match. Girona will be more ready in this match and the players know each other better now. I think Real Madrid, who had to get 1 point against Atletico, will go into this match with extra motivation and manage to further increase the point difference with Girona. Also, if we talk about Barcelona, Barcelona can catch them. At least if Girona loses, if they win, their chances for second place will be even higher. That's why I think Barcelona will also follow this match.

That's what the result says and it looks as if Girona had no chance to fight back and score goals, but that's not true. Of course if the result is 0-3 and someone didn't see the game, then it is easy to conclude that Girona didn't have a chance. But there are games when everything works out for one team while for the other team it is often close but doesn't end in a goal scored.

I don't think that the second game will now be similar and I expect a Girona team that will try to do their best to win the game. They won't be passive or afraid of the stadium and the audience.

Girona is quite taken into account even though statistically there is a significant difference. What needs to be highlighted is that Girona has the current top scorer in La Liga, namely Artem Dovbyk, who could disrupt Real Madrid's goal. Their performance this season is very impressive because of Dovbyk's role as top scorer. Plus Madrid's situation really lacks backup for the back line. If they are careless, it could be that Girona will dance at the Santiago Bernabeu and overtake the points in the standings table.

Of course this is possible. Girona is playing really good matches in the league this year. Artem Dobvyk is a true striker. If Real Madrid had him, I'm sure he would contribute more than Joselu. Joselu was a player who I expected to be better in his Real Madrid career, but he performed very poorly this year. I think Girona can easily take the lead with a little luck.
