Must-win game for Los Blancos?

When Real Madrid travel to Girona on Sunday, the White Ballet will be looking to get back to winning ways after two consecutive league games without a victory. If they fail to do so, the Madrid side could quickly lose their seemingly comfortable lead at the top of the table, which they enjoyed just two weeks ago. Their lead over archrivals Barcelona is currently only one point.

Girona, on the other hand, are facing a bonus game. The Catalans are not expecting to pick up any points against the giants from the capital, as the two teams are separated by 17 places in the table. However, they will not want to make it too easy for Xabi Alonso’s team. The underdogs are on an upward trend, with coach Michel’s team picking up four points from their last two games. However, that’s not enough to recommend a bet on the hosts in Girona vs. Real Madrid.

Because even though the conflict between the team and the coach at Real Madrid still doesn’t seem to have been completely resolved and the results in the league have left something to be desired recently, the white ballet has enough quality to beat the team in 18th place. This outstanding individual class is particularly evident in one person.

Kylian Mbappe is by far the best striker in La Liga with 13 goals this season and showed once again this week in the Champions League how important he is to his team. In a truly forgettable match against Olympiacos, in which the Madrid side conceded three goals, he single-handedly shot his team to victory with a four-goal haul. Based on his performance during the week, but also in recent months, the prediction for Girona vs. Real Madrid is that the French superstar will score.

But Kylian Mbappe is not the only one who can score goals in Xabi Alonso’s team, as the capital club has one of the best attacks in the league. Only the outstanding players of FC Barcelona have scored more goals this season. Nevertheless, it can be assumed that the Royals will have a number of scoring opportunities in the game against the league’s worst defense and that there will be more than 3.5 goals in total in this match, which can be played at good odds close to the doubling mark in Girona vs. Real Madrid.

Girona – Real Madrid Head-to-head record / H2H balance

The head-to-head record clearly favors the visitors in this match, who have won all of their last four games against Girona. In fact, they have not conceded a single goal in any of those games.

Girona – Real Madrid Tip

Even though things are not going smoothly for Los Blancos at the moment, the away game in Catalonia should not be a stumbling block for the league leaders.

Xabi Alonso can rely above all on superstar Kylian Mbappe, who is having an outstanding season and also shone in the Champions League during the week with a four-goal haul.

Thanks to his goals, it is likely that there will be several goals in the Royals’ away game. This means that a pure goal bet can be placed, for which attractive betting odds are offered for Girona vs. Real Madrid. Alternatively, there is also the option of combining a bet on the visitors with “over 1.5.”
