Cordoba vs Girona: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Andalusian club played in La Liga in 2014/2015, but since then has even dropped as low as the fourth division. They only returned to the Segunda in 2024, and last season, with 61 points, finished ninth, according to tiebreakers. This season, they started away at Burgos, losing 2-3 due to a goal in stoppage time.
The Catalan team did not spend much time in La Liga, but two seasons ago played in the Champions League. However, that season they barely avoided relegation. As it turned out, they only delayed it by a year: last spring, even with 41 points, they finished second from bottom. In the Segunda, now with a new coach and without several stars, they started against Leganes, snatching a 1-1 home draw with a goal in the 90th minute.
Ivan Ania’s side scores 1.35 goals per match on average, but concedes 1.46. As for their opponent, it’s no surprise Girona was relegated from La Liga: they scored only 1.03 goals per game, conceding almost half as many again—1.45.
