  • Competition: Spain - LaLiga
  • Date: Sunday, 15th, September 2024
  • Kickoff: 15:15 UK / 16:15 CEST
  • Venue: Estadio Municipal de Montilivi (Girona)

Looking to make it five wins from five, Barcelona heads to Estadi Montilivi on Sunday, where they’ll face off against Girona in an intense La Liga showdown.

There’s no denying that Girona was a true revelation in LaLiga last season, as they closely followed Real Madrid at the top for most of the campaign, but a dismal run of form between February and April extinguished their title hopes, leaving them to settle for a third-placed finish, which is still a major achievement earning them a historic spot in the Champions League. Before kicking off their European elite football journey, Blanquivermells aim to maintain the positive momentum from the start of the 2024-25 campaign, where they’ve bagged seven points out of a possible twelve to find themselves in fifth after four rounds.

Last season, Barcelona experienced one of their leanest campaigns of the century, as they ended up with no silverware and saw their double crown defenses in LaLiga and the Super Cup cut short prematurely, leaving them to find solace in qualifying for the UEFA Champions League as runners-up in the Spanish championship. Despite being quiet in the transfer market this summer, having signed only Euro 2024 Golden Boot winner Dani Olmo, the Catalan giants have made a dream start under their new boss Hansi Flick, as they proudly stand as the only team with a maximum points after four completed rounds.

Girona vs Barcelona Betting Tips: BTTS

Enjoying a fantastic start to the season, where they have capitalized on early slip-ups by their fierce rivals Real Madrid to build a four-point gap at the top of the table, the high-flying Barcelona will strive with all their might to achieve a perfect 5/5 and exact brutal revenge on Girona for last season’s league meltdowns. Indeed, Michel’s men thoroughly humiliated Barcelona last term by handing them a hefty 4-2 defeats in both league encounters, so these two Catalan rivals are expected to once again treat the fans to a goal fest on Sunday afternoon. 

After being crushed 0-3 in the Spanish capital by Atletico on matchday two, Girona made an outstanding comeback by firing six goals without reply against Osasuna and Sevilla, thus impressively getting back on track and boosting their confidence at just the right moment. Despite doubts about Barcelona’s defensive solidity, as they had been breached in each of their opening three matches, Flick’s men delivered a phenomenal response to the criticism with a seven-goal demolition of hapless Valladolid, and Raphinha had a memorable day with a hat-trick and three assists.

However, Barcelona’s defense will face a serious test from Girona, who have proven to be extremely dangerous in front of goal at home and have dealt heavy blows to their visitors recently, scoring 3 or more goals in six of their last eight home games. Given the circumstances, goals at both ends should be assured in the Catalan derby between these rivals, but the free-scoring Barcelona are expected to continue their flawless start to the season with another three points.

Girona team news

Due to a clause in his contract, Barcelona-owned Oriol Romeu will be unable to play against his parent club, which opens the door for Donny van de Beek to potentially make his first start since arriving from Manchester United this summer.

Key midfielder Yangel Herrera suffered an adductor injury in the last La Liga match before the break and missed international duties, but the Venezuelan is expected to be available for the Catalan derby.

Barcelona team news

Unlike their city rivals, Barcelona faces significant injury concerns with Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen, Frenkie de Jong, and Fermin Lopez all confirmed to be out, alongside Marc Bernal who has been ruled out for the season due to a severe cruciate ligament injury.

On a positive note, Gavi has rejoined team training after nearly a 10-month absence, though it will take him some time to regain full fitness, while Ansu Fati has recovered from his leg injury and could make his first appearance of the season from the bench against Girona.
