Girona and Barcelona star in a duel this Saturday at the top of the EA Sports LaLiga. The Barça team only has a lead of two points over Míchel Sánchez's team, which has secured a place in European competition with five games left until the end of the season.
The culés have just staged a comeback against Valencia, who went ahead on the scoreboard at half-time. Everything changed in the second half, after Mamardashivili was sent off for a handball outside the area.
The comeback goals came thanks to a hat trick from Robert Lewandowski, placing him just three goals behind the competition's top scorer: Girona striker Artem Dovbyk.
Ahead of the Barcelona striker are also Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid) and Alexander Sorloth (Villarreal) in the ranking of top scorers in LaLiga EA Sports, who have 17 goals each, with five games still left to play.
Furthermore, the Blaugranas want to redeem themselves from the painful defeat suffered in the first round of the competition (2-4) at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium. On that day, not only were three points lost, which at that time were important in the fight for the lead, but Xavi Hernández's team was surpassed in terms of football by the visiting team.
The match between Girona and Barcelona, corresponding to the thirty-fourth matchday of LaLiga EA Sports, will be played this Saturday, May 4, at the Montilivi stadium at 6:30 p.m. The meeting can be seen on television on DAZN and can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
