Expired

Girona vs Villarreal

Villarreal could further cement their place in the top three when they visit the Estadi Montilivi to take on Girona in Monday's action in the Spanish La Liga.

The hosts are eyeing a return to winning ways to avoid relegation, while Villarreal are looking to extend their unbeaten streak to four games.

Girona News

Girona are perfectly caught between pushing for European qualification or dropping into the relegation zone, as the gap between sixth and 18th is just 12 points. They suffered a narrow 1-0 loss to Osasuna in their last game before the international break.

The Catalan side have struggled this season and sit 14th in the table, seven points off sixth and five ahead of the bottom three. They have won three of their last 10 matches, scoring in eight of those games and keeping just two clean sheets.

Michel Sanchez's men have fared better at home, winning five of their last 10 fixtures at the Estadi Montilivi. Girona have seen over 2.5 goals in six of those games and have opened the scoring in their last two at home.

Villarreal News

Villarreal are enjoying one of their best campaigns in history, amassing 58 points after 29 games. A fast start helped them to a 3-1 home win over Real Sociedad last time out, scoring all three goals in the first half.

The Yellow Submarines are third in the table and look set for UEFA Champions League qualification. They have won five of their last nine La Liga matches, finding the net in each game. Meanwhile, one clean sheet in that run shows where their problem lies.

Marcelino Garcia Toral's side, however, must deal with their poor away form if they are to claim maximum points here. Villarreal have managed only one win in their last seven games on the road. They have failed to score just twice in their last 10 travels, with over 2.5 goals produced in eight of their last 10 competitive matches.

Head to Head

Villarreal have totally dominated this fixture, with eight wins and a draw in the last 10 meetings with Girona. They are unbeaten in the last four clashes, including claiming a comfortable 5-0 win in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Girona v Villarreal

Girona have scored first in their last two home games, with Villarreal netting in eight of their last 10 travels. This makes BTTS a safe option.

Four of the last six meetings between these sides have seen at least three goals, making over 2.5 goals appealing. Villarreal are unbeaten in four games against Girona, and the visitors are tipped for another win in this one.
