Welcome to the big match of the fifth day of the EA Sports League! Enjoy and we will start the live broadcast of the Girona-Barcelonathird and second place in the previous championship, which will meet again this Sunday at 4:15 p.m. at Montilivi. For those of Michael It will be a challenge against the leader before his debut in Champions League and for those of Hansi Film the opportunity to sign five full ones that they have not done for many years.
Perhaps soon that derby will arrive, which will have more appeal later in the first round. But the truth is that there is a desire for this match in Catalonia, to know if Girona can continue to aspire to be the strongest Catalan club or, on the contrary, the Barca chase away the ghosts of last year and continue to bet big on this League.
At the moment, the Blaugrana team, with the arrival of the German coach on the bench, has four victories in the first four days of the League. It is the best team of this start of the league, with Flick and Raphinha as the best coach and player of the month of August. A race that they do not want to see stopped in Montilivi.
Last year, with Xavi Hernandez on the bench and Girona as the revelation team, the result in Montilivi in May was 4-2 in favor of Míchel’s team. And, in Montjuic, in December, it was 2-4 for the red and whites. A hegemony, that of Barça, has been questioned in every way and now, once again in the northern stronghold, a new impulse will be felt.
Things have changed. This Barça seems happy with the arrival of Flick, with more energy and intensity on the green despite the many injuries and absences, with only the reinforcement of Daniel Olmo and a Paul Victor who, loaned last year by Girona to Barca Atleticostill unable to make his debut as a starter, but entering in stoppage time in three of the four games. The culés want more and, if Montilivi attacks, they will continue with comprehensive victories and adding important victims, after beating Valence either Athletics club previously.
In GironaBarcelona’s team is once again experiencing absences. Flick cannot count on Ronald Araujo, Gavi, Andreas Christensen, Fermin Lopez, Frenkie de Jong, Marc Bernal neither one nor the other Ansu Fati. But positively, Dany Elm is available after the scare with SpainThe playmaker could not have started his Barça career better with two goals in two appearances.
