Competition: Spain La Liga
Date: Sat 20.April
Match begins: 11:00 (UTC)
Venue: Estadio de Balaídos (31800 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 17th and the visitors in 14th place.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Girona have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
