Girona are enjoying a successful season, but their confidence has been shaken by two defeats in a row. In the Copa del Rey, they were unexpectedly beaten 2-1 by lowly Huesca, which was a nasty blow to their ambitions.

The upcoming game against Real Madrid will be a tough test, but their powerful attack, which has been consistently productive so far, remains their main asset. They are also confident at their home stadium, Montilivi, where they have suffered only one defeat this season.

Real Madrid
SpainCurrent form
Real Madrid were confident in their last La Liga game, beating Leganes 3-0. The success once again underlined the importance of Carlo Ancelotti tactical move, moving Kylian Mbappe to the left flank, where he revitalised the team attacking firepower. However, they were less convincing in the UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool (0-2), facing serious organisational problems.
Real Madrid enter the current round of La Liga in second place and are four points behind leaders Barcelona, but they have a game in hand. It is important to note that the defense of the “creamy” at times looks unstable: in the last two matches in all competitions the team has conceded nine goals, which is causing concern among fans. Nevertheless, the experience of the coach and the quality of the squad allow the Madrid team to hope for a successful result in the match with Girona.

David Alaba (knee injury), Militao (cruciate ligament injury), Dani Carvajal (ankle injury) and Vinicius (muscle injury) remain sidelined for the upcoming match.

1.99Tip and bets
In this match we expect both teams to play an attacking style of play, with an emphasis on creating many scoring chances. Real Madrid, with players like Mbappe and Bellingham, are capable of dealing a strong blow to the Girona defence, which has problems in defense, especially against such fast and technical attacking players.
Both teams often engage in high-tempo, high-scoring games, with more than three goals scored in their most recent head-to-head encounters, and both teams’ trends support a penchant for open play. Despite Girona’s improved attacking play, the defence remains vulnerable, giving Real Madrid the chance to execute multiple attacks. We predict a three-goal result, given the strong attacking lines and vulnerabilities of both sides’ defences.
Forecast - total over three goals with odds of 2.48
Bet on the outcome
Real Madrid are still favourites despite their recent inconsistency in some games. In this match against Girona, Los Blancos will be looking for a win to maintain their position in the league, but it is important not to forget about the upcoming matches in the Champions League. Given the confident form of the team as a whole and experience in such matches, we expect Real to win with a comfortable difference of two goals, despite resistance from the home team. Girona can cause problems in attack, but the lack of stability in defense can play into the hands of the visitors.
Prediction: Real Madrid win by two goals with odds of 4.80
Bet on corners
In this encounter, Real Madrid will be attacking actively, especially given the lineup that includes Mbappe, Rodrigo and other fast players. Girona will be forced to retreat and defend, which will lead to a large number of corners at the hosts' goal. It is also worth noting that with an attacking style of play, Real Madrid can create many dangerous moments, which will contribute to a large number of set pieces. All these factors suggest that there will be more than nine corners in the match.
Forecast - total corners over nine with odds of 1.94
