As Girona FC prepares to face RCD Mallorca on May 1, 2026, they find themselves in a precarious position, dangerously close to the relegation zone. This match at the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi could be pivotal for both teams in their fight against relegation.
Key facts:
- Girona is currently ranked 15th in La Liga, while Mallorca sits at 17th.
- Both teams have struggled recently, with Girona losing their last match 2-1 against Valencia and Mallorca suffering a similar fate against Deportivo Alavés.
- In their last ten league games, Girona has recorded three wins, four losses, and three draws.
- Mallorca’s recent form shows three wins, five losses, and two draws.
Historically speaking, Girona has had the upper hand in recent encounters. They have won their last two matches against Mallorca. This gives them a psychological edge going into this crucial fixture. But will that be enough? Both teams are desperate for points as they navigate this relegation battle.
Vedat Muriqi stands out for Mallorca as their top scorer with six goals this season. His performance will be critical if they hope to secure a win. On the other hand, Girona’s Paulo Gazzaniga is expected to start as goalkeeper — his ability to keep a clean sheet will be vital for their survival hopes.
The stakes are high; Girona cannot afford to let another three points slip away. With only four games remaining in the season, every point counts. A win here would significantly bolster their chances of staying up in La Liga.
This match will be broadcast on ESPN Deportes in the US at 21:00. Fans will undoubtedly be on the edge of their seats as both teams battle not just for victory but for survival.
