Elche vs Girona Team News
Elche
Los Franjiverdes are currently winless in their last three games and will look to improve that. The positive thing is that the home team drew their last game against Mirandes in the league and currently has no injuries.
Oscar Plano has scored seven goals so far this season for Elche, and he is expected to be in the starting eleven along with their star midfielder Nicolas Fernandez. Although Plano was substituted in the last game due to injury, there is not much information regarding his availability.
Predicted Lineup: Roman, S. Carreira, Bigas, Carlos, Fidel, Gasper, Mendoza, Fernandez, Morente, Oscar Plano, Ghezouani
Girona
The high-flying Catalans are currently facing a significant injury crisis. Lopez, Tsyhankov, Herrera, Garcia, Jastin, and Toni Villa are all out of this game due to injury. On top of that, coach Michel might rest some of their key players to focus more on La Liga, where they are currently sitting on top with Real Madrid. There will be changes in the starting eleven, along with a lot of substitutions.
Predicted Lineup: Fuidias, Juanpe, Espinosa, Martinez, Fernandez, Torre, Kebe, Solis, Almena, Portu, Stuani
*Confirmed Elche vs Girona lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.
Player to Watch: Christian Stuani
The 37-year-old veteran Uruguayan striker might start this game ahead of Dovbyk and could turn out to be the most important player in the match. Despite starting only five league games this season, Stuani has scored six goals and provided two assists. He scored two goals in the last Copa Del Rey game for Girona. The home side will be hoping that Stuani comes up with another stellar performance to advance to the round of 16 for the competition.
