Match begins: 17:30 (UTC)
Venue: Estadi Municipal de Montilivi (14286 seats)

A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Girona fans are optimistic that the difference between 6th and Numancia's 17th place in the table will show on the pitch.

The visiting Numancia played their last game only three days ago, a La Liga 2 match. That game was also an away game, at Fuenlabrada. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Girona form and stats

Girona have performed here at Estadi Municipal de Montilivi this season with 10 wins from 17 La Liga 2 matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 5 games and lost 2. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

Stress levels are on the rise for Girona's attacking players as they have now played 336 minutes without scoring in a league game. B. Llamas was their last goal scorer.

The fans are hoping that Girona will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the La Liga 2 game against Elche (placed 5th). In the match before that, Girona hosted Racing Santander and drew the game 0-0.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Girona matches with similar probabilities have ended with one win, three draws and zero defeats (from four games).

The manager J. Martí Soler will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Malaga in only four days.

The Girona fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 23 in 17 matches. From these home matches, Girona have conceded only 12 goals.

Numancia form and stats

There's been little loot from Numancia's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 17 away games in the La Liga 2. Numancia only have 2 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 6 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Numancia, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Sporting Gijón game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. It's all red in the travel logs of Numancia, having lost six matches in a row as the visiting team.

Numancia lost away at Fuenlabrada (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Cádiz.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Numancia when being an outsider away as they are today, we find five matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing one and winning two games.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Real Oviedo in just four days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Numancia have scored 18 goals in 17 league games away. In the opposite end, Numancia have conceded 28 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Numancia - Girona 2-0. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - four - three (Girona wins - draws - Numancia wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
