[Tips]:
Girona managed a 1-1 draw against RC Celta de Vigo in the last round, halting their losing streak and boosting player confidence, with the team's form gradually improving.

Levante UD, after suffering three consecutive defeats, dominated the fourth round and led by two goals but ultimately settled for a draw, exposing vulnerabilities in both attack and defense, leaving morale low.

Girona have a tactically versatile approach: their offense utilizes flexible positioning and combination play between wings and the center to break down defenses, while their defense maintains tight collective coordination, making it difficult for opponents to break through.

Levante UD primarily rely on counter-attacking football, but against tactically disciplined teams, their counters often struggle to gain traction, and defensive gaps tend to emerge.

AH market provided a -0.50 line to back Girona, although they stay at the bottom of the table now.

Therefore, we could expect Girona to bounce back and grab the first win in the new season.

[Recommended]:
Girona (-0.5)
