Barcelona is going to start this La Liga journey with the match against Mallorca. Barcelona is definitely a bit lucky that they are not facing a strong team in the first match. Mallorca as a team is a very weak opponent.
The match wanted to take a turn but Liverpool got a full grasp of the game back before the end of the game to prevail. Barcelona has really got it easy in this game and a win for them will not be surprising tonight. They got a very good opener in this season and their opponent, is a giveaway for them to easily win. Barcelona fans will be very happy that they will get their first win of the season on their first game in an away game tomorrow night. I don’t doubt Barcelona on this after showing a very impressive preseason performance, this match is for them to win.
Girona lost their first home leg 3-1, with Rayo clearly ahead. Girona had a poor start to La Liga. After a fantastic season two years ago, they've become an average team.
Girona lost the game in their home and even got a red card from the first half of the game when they were losing by two goals. I was expecting to see them come back stronger this season after a poor last season display, I hope they improve and get better with time but this poor start to the season is not a good one for them.
