Girona

In a crucial La Liga clash on Saturday, Girona will travel to face a struggling Las Palmas side, with the visitors knowing that a victory could propel them into second place in the standings and a step closer to securing an impressive Champions League berth. The contrast between the two clubs’ fortunes this season could not be starker. While Girona has exceeded all expectations in their remarkable campaign, Las Palmas finds itself embroiled in a relegation dogfight, with their recent form a cause for serious concern.

The grandstands of Getafe’s Coliseum Alfonso Pérez are set to witness an enthralling clash as the home side welcomes the might of second-placed Girona. While the Catalans have their sights firmly locked on an improbable La Liga title, José Bordalas’ men are embroiled in a tenacious scrap to secure a respectable mid-table finish. At first glance, the chasm between the two sides’ ambitions this season appears vast. However, the unpredictable nature of Spain’s top flight has repeatedly reminded us that any notion of a foregone conclusion is swiftly punished.
