A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and 15th place in the table will show on the pitch.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Lugo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Girona form and stats
Girona have performed here at Estadi Montilivi this season with 6 wins from 9 La Liga 2 matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 1. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Girona after consecutive victories at their own ground.

A case of two points dropped for Girona in the Real Zaragoza match as a lead 2-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw.
