Granada – Girona Preview: Latest Form, News, and Potential Lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Granada vs Girona lineups.
Granada
Granada lost 3 of their opening 4 La Liga games and they have some major issues in defence right now. Conceded 12 goals in the opening 4 rounds and have the worst defence in the entire top flight.
Last time around were beaten 3-5 away vs Real Sociedad. This was another awful defensive showing. Their only win was a 3-2 dramatic success vs Mallorca in their last home match.
In desperate search of better defending recently signed Manafa could be given his full debut straight away.
Granada’s main injury concerns are in defence. Both Vallejo and Torrente, both useful defenders when fully fit, struggle with minor injuries right now and they will need late fitness tests.
Predicted Lineup:
Fernandez (GK), Sanchez, Rubio, Miquel, Manafa, Melendo, Gumbau, Petrovic, Callejon, Uzuni & Zaragoza
Girona
Girona have made an impressive start to the new season and after 4 rounds they sit sandwiched between giants Real Madrid and Barcelona in the top 3. Only 2 points were dropped in the first 4 games with Girona making it 3 wins in a row last time out when edging Las Palmas 1-0 away from home. Portu scored the late winner on his debut.
The successes so far are directly linked to the major contributions from two veterans – 33-year-old Blind has been sensational in defence, while 36-year-old Stuani leads the line well as a false nine and he already has 2 league goals to his name.
Girona boosted further their defence with the addition of the ex-Man City centre-back Erik Garcia on loan from Barcelona. He could be in for his full debut straight away in the coming match.
Girona continue to be forced to use players out of position in midfield as 4 inner midfielders (Borja Garcia, Artero, Casals and Villa), 2 of which likely starters when fit, remain in rehabilitation.
Predicted Lineup:
Gazzaniga (GK), A Martinez, Garcia, Blind, Gutierrez, Tsygankov, Herrera, A Garcia, Martin, Savio & Stuani
Starting Lineups
The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.

Girona
Player to Watch: Cristhian Stuani
Girona’s legend Cristhian Stuani continues to impress despite his 36 years. Now in his 7th season at the club, Stuani still starts up front and he already scored 2 goals in 4 rounds. Stuani was Girona’s top goalscorer in 4 of the last 6 seasons.
The Uruguayan seems to be in great form right now. He is also highly motivated to continue being impactful as younger players are pushing for his starting role. With that in mind, we back Stuani to continue shining against the weakest defence in La Liga.
