Atletico Madrid
Girona are dealing with a long injury list, and the latest absence is Ounahi, who is unavailable due to international duty. His absence is significant, as he has been the most influential player in Girona’s midfield and a key link going forward.
In terms of form, Atlético Madrid hold a slight edge with three consecutive wins, although conceding a goal in each of the last five matches will concern a coach like Diego Simeone.
Historically, Atlético have handled this matchup well. They have suffered only one defeat in the last 10 meetings with Girona and have won four of the last five encounters.
What we say
Atlético Madrid to Win
With Girona’s absences now up to nine players and Ounahi missing, their attacking options are clearly limited. Atlético Madrid arrive in better form, hold a strong head-to-head record, and should have enough quality and experience to secure the victory.
