Girona vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Betting Tips (21 December)

Girona are 18th at the start of this day, under the threat of relegation but one victory away from being able to escape the red zone. With 15 points, only 11th, Elche, is mathematically impossible to catch up in a match. So there is no fire in the lake, especially since things finally seem to be going better in the game for the Blanquivermells who have just won away on the pitch of Real Sociedad 1-2. Before this victory, the Catalans suffered a heavy disappointment against Elche 3-0. This setback followed 2 draws against Real Madrid 1-1 and on the Bétis field 1-1.  On the other side of the median, Atlético Madrid lost big in the space of a week with defeats suffered on the pitches of Camp Nou against Barcelona 3-1 and San Mamés de Bilbao 1-0.

The Colchoneros are now 9 lengths behind the Blaugrana at the top of the standings. It's all the more a shame for Atlético Madrid who had achieved a great series of 7 victories in a row in all competitions. Last weekend, to avoid a third disappointment, the Madrilenians beat Valencia at the Metropolitano 2-1. This week, it was to the Balearic Islands that Antoine Griezmann's partners went to challenge Atletico Baleares in the Copa del Rey. Without shining, the Madrilenians ended up winning after a tight match 2-3. 

Very little used in the rotation, Artero spends most of his time injured. He won't play today. No more than Van de Beek, convalescing after his ruptured Achilles tendon. Replacement goalkeepers Juan Carlos and Krapyvtsov are unavailable (injured), as are winger Portu, veterans Stuani (3 goals in 9 appearances in La Liga this season) and David Lopez (defender) without forgetting to mention Abel Ruiz. On the other hand, Thomas Lemar is operational but since the latter comes from Atlético Madrid, he could not play due to a clause in the loan contract. Axel Witsel will be operational like the Ukrainian internationals Vanat (3 goals in La Liga) and Tsygankov (3 goals, 2 assists in La Liga). The Moroccan Ounahi (3 goals, 1 assist in the championship) left to compete in the CAN.

 3 injured players should be missing from the Cholo today, we are thinking of the central defender Gimenez, the Swiss army knife Marcos Llorente and the offensive player recruited at the expense of Villarreal this summer: Alex Baena. Affected this week in the Coupe du Roi, Clément Lenglet could also throw in the towel. Very often used off the bench, as a 12th man, Antoine Griezmann scored his 5th goal of the season in La Liga against Valencia. The Frenchman also scored twice in the Coupe du Roi this week. It was captain Koke who opened the scoring in the first period. Julian Alvarez (7 goals in La Liga) has been silent in the league since November 1.
