Valencia preview: Frustrating Valencians
Former West Bromwich Albion boss Carlos Corberan has been under pressure pretty much throughout the campaign but Valencia appeared to have clinched safety a few weeks ago before collapsing once again of late.
Los Che did manage to rescue a 1-1 draw with Real Mallorca the other day via an Umar Sadiq equaliser but that point means that they have managed just one victory in their last five matches in La Liga.
Girona preview: Steady Catalans
After a very difficult start to life in La Liga, Girona have been much-improved as the season has gone on as they push into the middle-of-the-table and now just three points outside of the top eight and the potential European spots ahead of the match day.
Girona did succumb to a topsy turvy and entertaining 3-2 loss to Real Betis at Montilivi last weekend, with Viktor Tsygankov and Azzedine Ounahi’s goals rendered meaningless due to strikes from Marc Roca, Abde Ez and Rodrigo Riquelme.

Valencia vs Girona prediction
Off-field issues have majorly affected a very inconsistent and frustrated Valencia side. The hosts remain in the battle against the drop at Mestalla. Girona have begun to rediscover their entertaining style of football that has been so impressive previously under Michel and they have to remain slight favourites here, albeit they can’t necessarily be trusted too much to be tight defensively.
