Girona vs Villarreal Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips
Girona vs Villarreal Preview
- Tournament – La Liga
- Date – Tuesday, May 14, 2024
- Kick-off Time – 08:00 pm GMT
- Venue – Montilivi Stadium
Girona will host Villarreal on Tuesday as they continue their surge towards finishing second in La Liga.
Girona were involved in a title race earlier this season but Real Madrid eventually won. They did secure UEFA Champions League football for next season after beating Barcelona 4-2 at home. However, they drew against Alaves and could drop to third place if Barca beat Real Sociedad on Monday.
Villarreal, meanwhile, are ninth in the standings and still hold an outside chance of making it into Europe. They are six points behind sixth-placed Real Betis, who have a game in hand. Villarreal have won three of their last five games, losing one and drawing the other.
Hence, both sides will look to secure all three points in their respective pursuits.

Girona vs Villarreal Prediction
![Alexander Sorloth scored a brace for Villarreal against Sevilla Girona vs Villarreal](https://cms.sportsdunia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Alexander-Sorloth-1024x538.webp)
Girona have lost just once in their last six games, winning four and drawing one. They drew 2-2 against Deportivo Alaves away in their last game. With their injuries, they might still be a bit vulnerable with a midweek game.
Villarreal, meanwhile, have lost just one of their last five games. They beat Sevilla 3-2 at home in their last game, with Alexander Sorloth scoring a 97th-minute winner.
It’s likely to be a tight match but Girona have the home advantage, which could play a factor. Moreover, Villarreal also have a few injuries, which could make it even more difficult for them.
