Barcelona welcome Girona with Hansi Flick’s side facing an awkward period of the season having lost their last two matches and also losing Lamine Yamal to injury.

With an El Classico on the horizon, Barcelona will want to get back to winning ways here against a struggling Girona side.

Barcelona v Girona Best Bet

Fixtures for: Saturday 18th October

Barcelona v Girona

La Liga

15:15

Barcelona to Win & Over 2.5 Goals

Barcelona have seen over 2.5 goals in each of their last five matches across all competitions. Hansi Flick’s side have managed to win three of these games but back to back defeats against PSG and Sevilla has derailed Barcelona’s early season momentum slightly.

Girona have only managed to win one of their eight matches in LaLiga so far this term, conceding 17 goals in the process which is the most of any side in LaLiga at this point. Unsurprisingly, Barcelona lead the way in the Spanish top flight when it comes to goals (22 - 2.75 per game). Barcelona have only kept one clean sheet across their last five matches so Girona could also contribute to the goal count here, despite their poor form.

Barcelona ran out 4-1 winners in this fixture last season and also saw this selection land as the away side with Flick’s side winning by the same scoreline. Barcelona should be motivated by recent defeats to get back to winning ways with Flick always having a range of goal threats at his fingertips to get us over the goal line here.

📈 Barcelona v Girona Form & Stats

Barcelona are the best attacking side in Europe in my view but their defence is still very vulnerable. They play with a high line which can be exposed readily by a few fast attackers as Sevilla showed in their 4-1 win over Barcelona just before the international break.

Hansi Flick’s philosophy is very much centred around out scoring the opposition rather than being pragmatic and limiting the number of chances they get. Barcelona will always feel as though they can score their way out of any game but this attitude has faltered in recent weeks with Barcelona losing their last two matches.

It also faltered in the semi finals of the Champions League last season with Barcelona crashing out of the competition having given up silly goals from set pieces and in moments of transition. Set pieces are another weakness of this Barcelona side, they aren’t the biggest side in the world and this is where their opposition usually get chances.

Girona had a massive fall off last season having finished 3rd in the 23/24 campaign. They finished 16th last term, avoiding relegation just by one point and could find themselves in a similar position here having won just one of their eight league matches so far. They’ve also failed to win on the road this term and conceded eight goals across their two meetings with Barcelona last season, though they did score in both matches.
