Mallorca 1-0 GironaFirst Half

Mallorca players played very well today against Girona. Although we consider Mallorca a weak team, this team is strong at home. Also, Mallorca players are confident today after the win against Real Sociedad in the last match of COpa del rey.

Mallorca team leading 1-0 at the end of the first half. We don't see good performance from Girona players in the first half. Although Girona's players had 62% of the ball possession, Girona's players managed to make only 5 shots. They won't be able to win against Mallorca today if they play defensively like this. Mallorca had 38% ball possession but attacked a lot. They made 10 shots in the first half. Although Mallorca are ahead now I think the match will be a draw.

A week ago it was written that Girona have three matches with Mallorca, Celta and Osasuna and that we can say that 9 points are almost guaranteed.
Many people think that if the team started well in the La Liga, then it will do well without top players, without a good bench consisting of excellent players, that it is possible only on one luck and attitude to win La Liga, but as we see in Girona it is not so.
Girona from the last 5 meetings won only one and it is obvious that the team can not maintain the necessary rhythm, and after the painful defeat from Real Madrid apparently even the players of Girona stopped believing that they can win La Liga.
Mallorca, who are fighting to stay in La Liga, had a decent match and brought it to victory, getting the necessary 3 points.

Firstly Girona was not a strong team. Girona's performance this season has surprised us all. They have consistently won matches and have been able to hold the top spot in the points table for a long time. However, Girona's squad lacked experienced players. Although we can play well for a long time because of the coach's match strategy, we can see the deterioration of the team's performance in recent times. They have no chance of grabbing the top spot in the points table. They have won only one match in their last 5 matches.

In the upcoming matches I predict Girona will fail to pick up points against Real Betis, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Villarreal. As Girona have performed in the last few matches, they will lose against these teams. Although they have been able to maintain dominance in the match, the attacking performance has been comparatively slow.
