On Thursday night, Girona host Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey quarter-final second leg. The first leg in the Spanish capital finished 4-2 to the European champions, so Los Blancos are big favourites to progress to last four of the competition.
Girona heads into this game on the back of a ten-game winless run in all competitions. Last time out they suffered a 2-0 home defeat against reigning champions Barcelona.
They drew both games against the visitor's city rivals Atletico in the last round but progressed courtesy of three away goals at the Wanda Metropolitano. In fact, Girona have won just one of their last 11 Copa del Rey matches in 90 minutes.
However, the home side has suffered just one defeat in six outings on home soil in the Copa del Rey. Their recent home games in the Spanish cup have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.
Real Madrid have found a touch of form of late, winning five of their last six games in all competitions. They followed the first leg victory in this tie by winning 4-2 at Espanyol in La Liga.
Santiago Solari’s side has certainly found their shooting boots of late, as Los Blancos have scored at least two goals in five of their last six competitive matches.
The visitors have a good recent record in the Copa del Rey, winning four of their last five matches in the competition. The team from the capital have also scored at least two goals in all four of those aforementioned five victories.
A 1-0 defeat at Leganes in their last away game in this competition ended a four-game winning run for the visitors on their travels in the Copa.
Forebet predicts that Real Madrid will continue their recent good form by recording a victory in a high scoring clash.
