Girona vs Villarreal
If we see based on the recent performance between these teams i can see they have equal records that from 10 latest matches they were only lose twice and this is very impressive especially for mediocre team such as Girona and both teams have same mission to playing at european competitions especially Girona because it could be good achievement if they can able to retain their spot and finish in 7th place at the end of season
I have to say both teams will starting this match with not full of squad because for Villarreal i saw 4 players who got injured besides that Villarreal will losing some of important players such as Pau Torres and Dani Parejo because of card accumulation and for Girona their holding midfielder Oriol Romeu will be unable to play because of suspension and i think this will have any affect for their game today because Romeu is one of their key player and almost be played regularly
I can see Villarreal is the favourite because based on the meetings statistics Villarreal has won 4 times streak from Girona but Girona also cannot be underestimate because they have successfully to improve their performance and after seeing the condition from both teams i think draw is fair result for them and this option has high odds @3.40
It is highly probable that this match has the potential to end in a draw. as you said, if we refer to the condition of the two teams, both Girona and Villareal are experiencing unpleasant conditions. considering, both teams have several players absent due to injury as well as several other players suspended due to red cards. the question is, will these two teams score goals. but if you refer to the available odds, it looks like there will be a lot of goals from both teams. now, we refer to the predicted line-up of these two teams.
for Girona, I'm actually not too sure but it looks like they will use a 4-1-4-1 pattern. while Villareal, they will use a 4-2-3-1 pattern. referring to the statistics of the two teams, there is not much difference in the last 5 matches of these two teams. Both teams won 3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss. but what made the difference, Girona got a draw in the last game. while Villarreal, toppled Athletic with a landslide score. in this match, the advantage for Girona who played as the home team. but to subvert Villarreal, is not an easy job.
Well, referring to what you said, betting on a draw is the ideal option if we refer to the current condition of the two teams. but my guess is Villarreal will be able to overthrow the home team. So, I will take the option to bet on Villarreal in this match with odds @2.48. worst case scenario, this fight will end in a draw as you predicted. however, in this fight I prefer to take risks.
