Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Atletico vs Girona

Atletico

During the summer preparation for the season, Atletico showed a decent level of play, the team took part in four friendly matches, winning three and drawing. In the last friendly, Diego Simeone's guys also played convincingly, winning away from Turin Juventus 2:0. But the "mattress makers" approached the matches of the Spanish Primera somewhat relaxed, so in the first round the team drew away from home with Villarreal 2:2. Llorente and Sorlot scored for the Madrid team .

Atletico enter the season with great ambitions, but have yet to confirm their priorities and plans on the pitch.

Girona

Girona were more active in the off-season, but did not show their best level of play there. The Girondins took part in seven friendly matches, winning and drawing three of them, and also suffering three defeats. In the last friendly, Michel's charges also left with nothing, having suffered a 2:3 defeat away from Bournemouth. In the Spanish championship, the "white-reds" also did not start in the best way, having drawn 1:1 away from home with Betis. Misekha scored the goal for the visitors.

It will be tough for Girona this season, the team has lost a number of leaders, plus they will play in the Champions League, and in La Liga the clubs will be preparing for the Catalans differently.

Game Totals Prediction

Atletico played well in attack, but the defense let them down a bit in the opening match of the season. The condition and form of Girona remains a mystery, the club has lost most of its leaders, and is currently rebuilding. In a face-to-face meeting of teams undergoing rebuilding and renewal, I think there will be goals. The hosts' defense has been renewed, as has the attack, the same applies to the Catalans, so there will be moments, mistakes and goals: both will score - yes - 1.62.
