Sporting Gijón will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 6 points behind Girona.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the La Liga 2.

These teams have little in common geographically as Girona have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Girona are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
