The Estadi Municipal de Montilivi is the host for an historic occasion on Wednesday evening as Girona face their first-ever home UCL fixture against Eredivisie opponents Feyenoord.
Girona vs Feyenoord Betting Tips - BTTS
A competitive contest is expected with both teams coming into Wednesday's intriguing Champions League contest in poor recent form.
After a wonderful campaign which saw the hosts claim UCL qualification for the first-time in their history, Girona have struggled to replicate last season´s outstanding form.
Having won back-to-back games a month ago, the Blanquivermells have since failed to win any of their last five matches (D2, L3). Since the departure of top scorer Artem Dovbyk, the goals have dried up for Míchel Sánchez´s men with just one scored in their last four outings.
Goals can usually be expected at Estadi Municipal de Montilivi. Eight of Girona´s last 11 home fixtures saw at least three goals scored, although they were held to a 0:0 draw in their last home fixture in La Liga.
Feyenoord arrives in Catalonia in less than stellar form with just one win collected from their last five games across all competitions. Brian Priske´s side have been held to score draws in each of their last three away Eredivisie fixtures against Sparta Rotterdam, Groningen and NEC.
On the road, the Rotterdammers are usually a solid bet for goal chasers. Seven of their last nine road fixtures saw over 2.5 goals scored while each of their last five saw BTTS.
While Girona´s recent numbers offer less conviction for either of those selections, I do expect the Catalans to breach a Feyenoord defence that has failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven away fixtures.
A closely-fought contest should see both teams net, so I'm putting my money on BTTS with the expectation that a late winner could bring up an over 2.5 goals pick as well.
Girona team news
Head coach Míchel Sánchez is expected to make at least one change for Wednesday's Champions League matchup. Oriol Romeu limped off in the first-half of Sunday's draw at Celta, so Donny Van den Beek is expected to come into the Girona midfield.
