Girona’s situation in the classification is not good. The Catalan club is virtually eliminated having won only one game of the six played. Mathematics says that Míchel’s they still have optionsbut they are very remote. The Gironí team should beat Milan (in San Siro) and Arsenal (in Montilivi) and wait for three teams to not score points and five to leave points along the way.
In the goal, Gazzaniga He will continue to be the starting goalkeeper. The Míchel’s confidence The Argentine remains intact, betting on him in both La Liga and Champions League matches, he has only missed the Copa del Rey.

Against larger rivals, Girona has suffered a lot with the line of four, although against Liverpool the defensive plot produced its best game. So when one thing works, it is better not to change it. David Lopez and Krejci They will be in the rear axis, while Blind and Alexander French They will start from the sides.
The center of the field will be formed by the double pivot composed of Oriol Romeu and Yangel Herreraindisputable in Míchel’s scheme; while something further ahead will be Van de Beek.
On the offensive side, Bryan Gil will act as left winger, while Tsygankov will be on the right wing. At the point of attack, Abel Ruiz He will have the responsibility of scoring the goals that Girona has lacked: four in six games.
