Girona hosts Almeria in the first leg of Spanish LaLiga 2 promotion playoffs semifinals. The match will be played on Thursday, July 13th at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi (Girona)
Girona played in Primera last year, and now it dreams of returning there. The Catalans won two-thirds of their home matches and conceded the smallest number of goals. Throughout the season, the hosts focused on the reliability of their defense, and therefore became the most uninspiring team among those claiming to be promoted.

Almeria relied more on the attack but had problems against a well-organized defense. After the end of the regular season, the visitors changed their coach, which usually promises a new game model. Jose Gomez built strict defensive football at his previous place of work. Something similar should be expected from his current club.
The clubs held their last head-to-head match just a month ago, and it ended with a score of 1:0. The situation is absolutely typical for Girona - eight out of its previous nine home games were low-scoring. Head-to-head meetings of these teams have similar statistics - no more than two goals were scored in five out of six matches held on the Catalans’ pitch. Even the games of Almeria became much less spectacular after the coronavirus break. “Under 2.5 goals scored” took place in 7 out of 11 rounds after the restart of the season. I think the upcoming meeting won’t please the fans with goal extravaganza.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
