Within one season, Girona went from the Champions League to fighting for survival in La Liga. This happened during the last campaign, which ended with them just one point away from the relegation zone. Girona won only one of their last eight home games in the championship. Despite the drop, coach Michel kept his position. This summer, Thomas Lemar from Atletico Madrid and Vitor Reis from Man. City joined the club on loan.
The campaign for Rayo Vallecano was much better. The team finished eighth and secured their first participation in European competitions in 25 years. They ended the season without a loss in the last five rounds. So far, they are not active in the transfer market for the new campaign. The only addition to the club at this stage is Luis Felipe from Marseille.
Prediction: X2 double chanceWe have yet to see how things will develop in the new season. So far, both teams do not seem particularly changed, and considering the last campaign, it seems to me that Rayo may not lose this match.
