Girona FC vs Sporting de Gijón Prediction 3 September 2021

The fourth round of the Spanish Segunda will be remembered by the confrontation between Girona and Sporting de Gijon.

In the 2020/21 season, Girona aspired to enter the elite till the end, but eventually ceded this right to Rayo Vallecano. And the Catalans began a new campaign in the role of a strong middle-tier team. In duels with Amorebieta (2:0), Las Palmas (0:0) and Ponferradina (1:2), they scored four points and established themselves in eleventh place.

Sporting Gijon triumphed in both home matches against Burgos (1-0) and Mirandes (2-1), while away there was a draw 0-0 against Tenerife. Such a pragmatic model of game brought the Asturians to the fourth line of the tournament table - they have seven points in their asset with the statistics of goals scored and conceded of 3:1.

Both teams are pretty good defensively, while in attack they create very few truly scoring chances. We predict pragmatic and competitive football with low performance.
