Yes, Girona must at least be able to maintain its current position in order to achieve its target of qualifying for the Champions League next season. Realistically it doesn't seem that difficult to stay in the top four, with the remaining ten games it seems impossible for Giron to drop so many points. But even so, Girona players cannot be satisfied just yet, they must be aware that threats will always come every week. The competitors also always see this opportunity and they will also try to finish in the best position so that we can see that the competition in La Liga will be even more exciting until the end of the season.
On paper, Girona chances of securing a ticket to the Champions League are quite safe, they even have the opportunity to continue competing with Madrid at the top of the standings, apart from that the most realistic opportunity is to finish in runnerup position. Barcelona, who is in third place in the standings, will continue to press from the bottom, with 1 point adrift, Xavi squad has the opportunity to move up the rankings and overtake Girona in the remaining matches to come. No one expected Girona to be able to stay in the top four for 28 weeks, and finishing in third place in the standings was also an achievement for them.
Looking at Girona match schedule until the end of the season, there are two important matches that Michel squad must play, namely against Atletico and Barcelona. The other 8 games they could probably win, although I agree that it is difficult because they are not completely stable at the moment. In the first half of the season, Girona was able to beat the two elite La Liga teams, it is possible that Girona will do it again. However, Atletico and Barcelona attempts at revenge have the potential to cause Girona to lose points.
