Barcelona vs Girona FC Prediction and Betting Advice

There have been less than three goals at Camp Nou in three of the hosts’ last four home clashes in all competitions. Aside from a 2-1 win over Deportivo Alaves, their recent cup matches against Valencia and Espanyol were very close. More recently, Getafe managed to hold Ernesto Valverde’s men to a 0-0 draw in Catalonia, with the hosts not getting firing at all.

Girona’s last three away outings have been similarly understated, with the Catalan underdogs losing 1-0 to Sevilla, drawing 0-0 with Malaga and drawing 1-1 with Atletico Madrid. Machin’s men remain organised and are very tough to play through, which should pose Barca another big challenge after they failed to find a way through Getafe a fortnight ago.

Unibet offer the best odds on there being less than three goals at Camp Nou, which suits the recent form of both of these teams. Girona have lost just one of their last six league matches, with their squad riding a good wave of confidence at present. They’ll be set on frustrating Barca.

Our Barcelona vs Girona FC bets back this to be a tight affair, with the away side capable of making a bit of a fight of it. Getafe managed to ensure that the home side didn’t have a shot on target at Camp Nou in their last home fixture, with Machin’s men sure to have taken some lessons from that performance from the Madrid-based club. They’ll look to get into the break unscathed and then go from there.

10Bet offer the best odds on the game being tied at the half-time break, before Barca push on to be ahead at the full-time whistle. Girona are winless in their last five La Liga away games, with Machin’s side stronger at Montilivi recently. While Barcelona are unbeaten in the Spanish top flight, they have looked a little less dangerous in recent weeks and could be held at bay for a while.

Our Barcelona vs Girona FC betting tips suggest that the away side will be able to make a game of this, with the Catalan derbies definitely having some spice to them this campaign. Lionel Messi and company should be strong enough to find a way through eventually, but Girona will make life very difficult indeed.
