Valencia enjoyed a solid 2021-23 campaign, securing a ninth-placed finish in La Liga, picking up 48 points from 38 games. Los Che also progressed to the final of the Copa del Rey, where they suffered a disappointing penalty shootout defeat against Real Betis.

Valencia head into the weekend on a run of just one win in their last nine La Liga games, losing three and claiming five draws since the start of April.
Girona are unbeaten in their last three competitive outings, picking up two wins and a draw in their final three games of the 2021-22 La Liga 2 campaign.

Valencia vs Girona Prediction

While Girona will look to announce their return to the Spanish top flight on a high, they face a more experienced Valencia side who have won their last two home games. Los Che should make use of their home advantage once again and come away with a slender victory.
