Famous Ukrainian journalist Roberto Morales prepared a forecast for the Spanish Championship match «Barcelona» — «Girona».
«Girona» has at least five injured players and another two suspended. Among those recovering from injuries is Viktor Tsygankov. However, Vladyslav Vanat will play his second derby in Spain, and Vladyslav Krapyvtsov should be in reserve after returning from the Youth World Championship.
«Girona» is currently in the relegation zone, which speaks volumes about the state of Michel’s team. Yes, during the pause, the Catalans did not change their head coach and probably did so mainly because they achieved their first victory of the season in the last round, defeating «Valencia» at home. And if «Girona» lost this season, it did so with almost no chance.
This match could very well have marked the opening of the renovated «Camp Nou,» but no — Barcelona’s home is not ready to return to play, and now they are already talking about opening the arena at least in the current season. During the two-week pause for international games, it might have been forgotten that «Barcelona» suffered two consecutive defeats earlier. And if the failure in the game against «Paris Saint-Germain» could be explained by the class of the opponent, then the deserved 1:4 against «Sevilla» is a disaster.
The bet is on both teams to score and a total over 3.5," Morales said.
