Villarreal vs Girona Prediction and Betting Tips | 1st December 2024

The 2024-25 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Girona lock horns with an impressive Villarreal side in an important encounter at the Estadio el Madrigal on Sunday. Both teams have good players in their ranks and will want to win this game.

Villarreal vs Girona Preview

Girona are currently in eighth place in the La Liga standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The Catalan outfit slumped to a damaging 1-0 defeat at the hands of SK Sturm Graz in the UEFA Champions League this week and will need to bounce back in this match.

Villarreal, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have stepped up to the plate this season. The Yellow Submarines were held to a 2-2 draw by Osasuna in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.

Villarreal vs Girona Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Villarreal have a good recent record against Girona and have won eight out of the last 13 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Girona's five victories.
Villarreal have played out eight matches with five victories and three defeats against Girona in La Liga - the highest number of fixtures they have played out without a draw against a single opponent in the history of the top flight.

Villarreal vs Girona Prediction

Villarreal have managed to hit their stride this season and will need to work hard to cement their place in the top four. Alex Baena has been brilliant for the Yellow Submarines so far and will look to make an impact this weekend.

Girona have largely failed to hit the heights they achieved last season and have a point to prove on Sunday. Villarreal are in better form, however, and should be able to win this game.
