The Girona – Almería duel will be the last game of the Spanish second division 8th round. Knowing before the start how the rest of the teams played and moved in the table, will increase the pressure even if the season is just starting.
Girona fell to the second division in 2018 and, in the last two years, they participated in the promotion playoffs. Sadly, none of these occasions finished with a come back to the first division. However, this season they started very badly. The team is currently in the 15th place with only 2 victories after 7 rounds. The offensive line has scored only 5 times and seems to be the weak point at the moment.
On the contrary, Almería seems to be ready to do the big step this season. Just as Girona, Almería participated in the promotion playoffs for the last two seasons with the same bad luck on the decisive games. This year, they started with 5 victories in 7 rounds and 15 goals scored in total which is great. The team has more goals scored than any other team in the league and their defense is also a solid one.
I think Almería are playing as well as last season, while Girona clearly decreased its quality. For those reasons, and even with the ‘visitor’ status of Almería, I will give them a +0 handicap which offers good odds in VIP-IBC.
