Command Analysis
Girona
SpainCurrent form
Girona had a great last season, earned a ticket to the main European football tournament. However, the team underwent significant changes in the off-season, it certainly did not become stronger. Plus, there is no experience of participating in the Champions League, and simply fighting in such a busy schedule. As a result, we can see a failure in the Champions League and not the most successful performances in Primera.
In seven rounds played in the Champions League, Girona have earned only three points thanks to a victory over the obvious outsider Slovan from Bratislava (2:0). With three points earned, the Spaniards have already lost their chances of reaching the playoffs, they are in 31st place in the table. At the moment, Michel charges have a series of four matches without victories in the Champions League, and in this period they have not scored a single goal. In the previous round, a minimal defeat of 0:1 was recorded away from Milan.
In Primera, Girona is aiming for a place in the top six in Europe, but recent results are alarming. They failed to score a single point in matches against Sevilla at home (1:2) and Rayo Vallecano away (1:2). In the standings after 21 rounds, the team is in eighth place, with 28 points, two points behind Mallorca, who are in sixth place.

Krejci, Blind, Gassaniga and Gutierrez are injured. Gil will serve a suspension.

Arsenal
EnglandCurrent form
Arsenal have a very simple task before the final round of the Champions League: they need to earn at least one point to guarantee themselves a place in the 1/8 finals and not depend on anyone. The Gunners have 16 points and are third in the table. After an away defeat to Inter with a minimal score of 0:1, the Londoners have produced a series of three victories in a row, scoring at least three goals. In turn, they managed to beat Sporting (5:1), Monaco (3:0) and Dinamo Zagreb (3:0).
Mikel Arteta team has impressed with their solid defensive play throughout the tournament, conceding only two goals. Only Inter and Sporting have managed to breach their defence. It should be noted that the points were lost in away games, against Inter (0:1) and Atalanta (0:0).
Arsenal are in second place in the Premier League, where they will most likely finish once again, although there is still a decent tournament distance ahead. In 23 rounds, the Londoners have scored 47 points, are six points behind Liverpool, who also have a game in hand, and three points ahead of Nottingham Forest. In the previous round, the Gunners managed to win away from home against outsider Wolverhampton with a minimal score of 1:0.

Girona have no tournament motivation before the final round, while the game in the Champions League is not going at all, as evidenced by four defeats in a row without a single goal scored. It is obvious that Michel team is now on the decline, because they lost in the previous two rounds in La Liga. Arsenal played the last three matches in the Champions League flawlessly, without any problems scoring at least three goals against their opponents. It is unlikely that the Gunners will lose points today, especially since they have not yet guaranteed themselves a place in the top 8. We recommend a betting tip for a confident victory for the bookmakers' favorite in this pair.
