Liverpool hosts Manchester City in a Matchweek 6 Premier League clash. The big derby takes place this Sunday, October 11, at 16:30 at Anfield.
Real Madrid hosts Girona in a match from the 31st round of La Liga. The match will be played on Friday, April 10, at 20:00 UK Time at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Form of both teams
Real Madrid suffered their second consecutive 1:2 defeat of the week when they lost against Bayern Munich at home in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final. Last weekend, Alvaro Arbeloa's team lost away to Mallorca in La Liga and are seven points behind leaders Barcelona. Real Madrid have won five of their past seven matches in all competitions and are expected to return to winning ways on Friday. The "Royal Club" is a strong host in La Liga and has seven wins and one defeat in its last eight home matches in the championship.
The guests from Girona occupy 12th place in the standings with an asset of 37 points - just one out of the top 10. The Catalan team's form in recent matches in the league has been inconsistent. The team has made strong plays such as the 3:0 victory against Athletic Bilbao and the minimal success over Villarreal in their last match, while at the same time there have been disappointing losses to Osasuna and Celta Vigo. Draws against Levante and Alaves also show a lack of stability. The team is struggling to maintain consistency in both attack and defense. This makes their performance difficult to predict and negatively affects their position in the standings.
Prediction for Real Madrid - Girona
Real Madrid have scored 2 or more goals in seven of the past eight home matches in La Liga. Alvaro Arbeloa's team has only wavered at home in the league when they lost 0:1 to Getafe in 2026. Girona have been a poor away team recently, with three draws and two losses in their last five visits. I think the visitors will not stand a chance against Real Madrid and will lose the match by at least 2 goals.
