Almeria vs Girona Prediction and Betting Tips | October 20th 2022

Almeria will entertain Girona in a bottom-of-the-table mid-week La Liga clash on Thursday.

The hosts fell to their sixth defeat of the season as Real Betis inflicted a 3-1 away loss on them on Sunday. They have two wins to their name this term and are in 18th place in the league table with just seven points from nine games.

Girona are winless in their last four league outings but avoided a fourth-straight loss last time around against Cadiz. Substitute Cristhian Stuani scored a last-gasp penalty deep in injury time to salvage a point for Girona in a 1-1 draw.

After the game on Thursday, the two sides will be in league action again on Sunday, so we expect some players to be rested for this game.

Almeria vs Girona Prediction

Almeria have endured a slow start to their season and have suffered five defeats in their last six league games. They have scored the majority of their goals this season at home and should be hopeful of a positive outcome.

📈 Amb el gol d’avui, @CristhianStuani s’ha convertit en el jugador amb la sèrie més llarga de gols marcats de penal de la història de Primera Divisió (17/17).

Blanquivermells are without a win in their away games and have lost two games in a row in their travels. They have scored a goal apiece in their last three away games and should be able to find the back of the net here.

Given the recent results between the two sides at Thursday's venue, a defeat for the visitors seems unlikely. As Almeria have picked up two wins from four home games this season, they are also likely to hold their own here. With that in mind, a low-scoring draw might ensue.
