Girona vs Atletico Madrid Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in Spanish La Liga on Monday, 13 March 2023.
Former champions Atleti are on a great streak of performances, and are determined to improve their hold over a podium spot. It helps their cause that the fourth-placed Sociedad are going through a poor spell.
Meanwhile, Girona are struggling for consistency. Just the last game week, they lost against Getafe, who are placed in the bottom tier of the table.
The reverse fixture ended in a 2-1 win for Diego Simeone’s men, and they are on a two-game winning streak. In fact, they have a 100% unbeaten record against this foe in the past decade.
Also, not once have Girona kept a clean sheet against this rival.
Atletico Madrid are the only team in the whole competition to have remained unbeaten in the past five fixtures in the league. In fact, they lost a single La Liga game since November, and it came against Barcelona.
On the other hand, Girona just lost against the 16th placed Getafe, and they also lost four of their past seven overall fixtures. And on top of that they have a 100% winless record against Simeone’s men in the past decade.
Likely, a win for Atleti is the expected outcome.
Atleti scored two or more goals in the last three h2h clashes in a row, and only once did they fail to score on the road in a league game since April of 2022.
And with Girona keeping a single clean sheet at home this whole league season, goals are expected in plenty this game week.
Only Real Madrid and Barcelona let in fewer goals than Atleti this season in the La Liga. Do also note that the Simeone’s men kept clean sheets in four of their past seven road trips.
It looks like the hosts would find it tough to find the back of the net this Monday.
Not only are Atleti placed third in the table, but they are also the only team in the whole competition to stay unbeaten in the past five game weeks. In fact, their only La Liga loss in the past four months came against toppers Barcelona.
On top of that they have a 100% unbeaten record against this opponent, including a win in the reverse fixture. Do also take into account the fact that Girona are a team that were promoted to the top flight only at the end of the last season.
By the looks of things, Atletico Madrid to Win would be a neat pick at 2.20 odd.
They scored two or more goals in 100% of h2h clashes in the past four years. Moreover, Girona failed to keep a single clean sheet in their h2h history with Simeone’s men, and they could register just a single clean sheet at this ground this whole league season.
As such, the Over 1.5 Team Goals by Atletico Madrid would be a good choice at 2.20 odd.
