Command Analysis
Valencia
SpainCurrent form
It has been a desperate start to the La Liga season for Valencia, who find themselves bottom of the table after a 3-0 defeat at Atletico Madrid. For the first time since the 2018/19 tournament, Los Che have failed to win any of their opening five league games, but coach Ruben Baraja points to the difficulty of their fixtures, with this clash with Girona expected to be their fifth against teams that finished in the top eight last year. That may explain their 12-match winless run in La Liga, which ominously includes a 3-1 defeat in the corresponding fixture last season in May.
Disqualifications and injuries
Diakhaby (knee injury), Domenech (muscle injury), Gaja (muscle injury), Duro (muscle injury) and Perez (injury) will not be able to play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Six of the eight head-to-head meetings between these teams ended in a draw at half-time.
- Valencia midfielder Pepelu could be the driving force behind his side amid an injury crisis among forwards. He scored eight goals last season, including this game, all from the penalty spot.
Estimated lineup : Mamardashvili – Vasquez, Tarrega, Garciorovsky, Correa – Almeida, Guillaumont, Pepelu, Tejon – Mir.
Girona
SpainCurrent form
Visitors Girona are not exactly optimistic after a tough week against two European heavyweights. First they were thrashed 4-1 by Catalan rivals Barcelona, then suffered a defeat in their UEFA Champions League debut, conceding a 90th-minute goal in a 1-0 defeat to PSG, although in truth their three shots on target to the Parisians’ 26 speak volumes. However, after their exploits last season, Girona were always going to have a tougher time, as they have proven in six competitive matches, winning just two.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of the game are Justin (shoulder injury) and Artero (ankle injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Girona defender Cristian Stuani has scored five goals against Valencia, with all of his last six goals for the club coming after the 65th minute.
- Michel's side can take heart from the fact that they have lost just one of their last six away league games
Estimated line-up : Juan Carlos - Martinez, Juanpe, Akobishvili, Romeru - Urena, China, Almena, Solis, Misehou - Stuani.

In this match we are on the side of attacking football, because only at the opponent's goal can you find your happiness. Both teams are full of determination, and the epidemic of injuries will not prevent them from creating moments at the opponent's goal. In addition, in the last two face-to-face matches, less than three goals were scored, which we do not exclude today.
Our betting tip is total over 2.5 goals and we bet on it with odds of 2.08
Bet on the outcome
Today the visitors are the favorites, but the hosts absolutely need to win.

We assume that today Valencia will be able to gather strength and please fans with an important victory.
Prediction: Valencia win for 2.90
