Girona FC host Real Sociedad in a crucial La Liga clash where the home side are still fighting to protect their top-flight status, while the visitors are looking to finish the campaign with pride.

Girona’s 1-1 draw against Rayo Vallecano extended their winless league run to five matches, leaving them just two points above the relegation zone. Míchel’s side have lost momentum at the worst possible time, and with the survival battle tightening, every point now carries huge importance.

The hosts will take encouragement from the fact that their last three La Liga victories all came at home, including wins over teams in the top half of the table. That home strength could prove vital as Girona look to move closer to safety.

Real Sociedad, meanwhile, already have UEFA Europa League qualification secured thanks to their Copa del Rey triumph. However, their league form has dipped badly, with La Real now winless in five La Liga matches. With little left to chase in the table, motivation may be a concern, although Sociedad still possess enough quality to punish a nervous Girona side.

The reverse fixture ended in a 2-1 Girona win, but Sociedad have historically been difficult opponents for them. With both teams struggling for consistency, this match could be closely contested and decided by small details.
