Atleti to host an in-form Girona
At 4:15 p.m. CET, Atlético de Madrid will host Girona in the Wanda Metropolitano.
An in-form Girona will face Atlético de Madrid in the Wanda Metropolitano at 4:15 p.m. CET. The Catalan side are currently 10th in LaLiga with 26 points and last weekend they beat Las Palmas 6-0.
On the other hand, the 'rojiblancos' are second in LaLiga and in our last league matchday, we beat Eibar 0-1 with a Kevin Gameiro goal. Diego Costa served his suspension last weekend and will be available in today's match.
This will be the first-ever time Atleti host Girona, as the two sides faced each other for the first time in August in matchday 1. That match ended 2-2.
Vitolo, new Atlético signing, spoke to Atléticodemadrid.com and knows how important it is to beat Girona.
"It'll be an intense game. Girona are having a great season. Offensively they have great players," he explained. "The key will be to play with intensity and seize control of the match so we get the three points."
