Girona vs Alaves Prediction & Betting tips
In the previous one, there is no clear favorite on this occasion, since the two teams are even and competitive in their actions. For that reason and even when they have different football styles, we believe that the bet “more 1.5 goals” is interesting to bet. Paint to be an intense duel and situations, since the key is open after the 2-2 draw that took place in the first leg. In the end, the goals can fall by punctual plays, by stopped balls or by actions elaborated from the medullar zone.
Girona :
The Catalan team drew 1-1 against Atlético de Madrid as a visitor, reaching a total of 21 points. At the moment it is located in the sixth position of the championship, being its goal to be able to classify to the next Europa League. He has added 2 draws and 3 wins in his last 5 league appearances, noticing an improvement in his football proposal. The team has gradually adapted to the philosophy of coach Eusebio, which seeks to move their boys back and forth in blocks. They have scored 17 goals and have given 16 on their fence, lacking some hierarchy at the time of scoring.
For this duel it is expected that the coach Eusebio repeat the 3-4-2-1 system that usually used regularly, which allowed him to fight until the end to match the first game. It is enough to know that he lost 2-1 at the end to corroborate this affirmation (second goal converted at 51 ‘minutes of the second half). The logic indicates that the Catalans take advantage of the local factor to attack more and to pressure their rival. This even when some substitutes play from the initial whistle.
Alavés:
The picture “blanquiazul” equaled 1-1 against Sevilla at Mendizorroza, reaching 24 points in the general table. He is currently in fourth position and dreams of being able to qualify for a European tournament at the end of the season. He has alternated several results in his last 5 presentations, lacking some effectiveness to win two games in a row. He has scored 18 goals and has given 14 on his fence, proving to be a seasoned and combative by nature. Of course, this time will play the substitutes, which could fail in defense and have more situations facing the goal.
As a visitor, Alavés has taken a very practical and competitive position, demonstrating it by adding acceptable results in several of his league outings. Therefore, it is expected to repeat what has been done in some matches of the Santander League (3 wins in 7 starts). Should risk after equaling 2-2 in the first leg, a result that was negative as it was winning 2-1 with a goal specified at 43 ‘minutes of the complementary stage. For this exit is expected that the “blue and white” risk and seek to score thanks to its philosophy of direct play.
In the last 5 and a half years, Girona and Alavés have met 5 times in Montilivi. These were the results of those matches: Victory 1-0 of Girona in August 2013 by Liga2, 0-0 draw in October 2013 for the Copa del Rey, equality 2-2 in December 2014 by Liga2, victory 1 -0 from Girona in April 2016 for Liga2 and win 2-3 from Alavés in December 2017 for Liga Santander. Apparently, there is no clear paternity between both teams, being feasible that the process is repeated in this opportunity. Therefore, we trust that there will be 2 goals at least during the 9 minutes of play.
