On Wednesday, January 29, Girona will welcome Arsenal to their Estadio Montilivi for the eighth and final group stage match of this season’s UEFA Champions League. The Girona vs Arsenal game will kick off at 20:00 UK Time.
The tournament standings of the rivals in the European Cup are now quite distinct. Arsenal stands out as one of the most formidable clubs in the tournament. He lost points only twice in seven rounds, both times against Italian clubs – once to Inter and once in a draw with Atalanta. In previous meetings, Arteta’s team secured victories, notably against Sporting (5:1), PSG (2:0), and Monaco (3:0). The team, with 16 points, secures third place and boasts an impressive goal difference between goals scored and conceded. Even in defeat, it is still unlikely that it will drop below the top-8.
Girona is not contending for anything in this Champions League. It managed to score points just once in seven rounds, achieving a victory over Slovan Bratislava with a score of 2-0. In previous meetings, the representative of La Liga faced defeats against opponents of varying levels. He struggled against PSV, losing 0:5, and also faced defeat against Sturm with a score of 0:1. Currently, the Gironians sit in 31st place with three points, leaving them without any opportunity to qualify for the play-offs.
In other recent matches, Girona have struggled as well. In the championship, it recently suffered defeats against Sevilla (1:2) and Rayo Vallecano (1:2). Over the past two months, the team has managed to lose only twice.
Arsenal generally performs better and wins much more often. However, for a club competing for trophies in England, the situation is somewhat precarious; it occasionally falters, particularly in matches against less formidable opponents.
