Barcelonavs.Girona

Hansi Flick's side will enter the contest off the back of a 3-0 victory over Osasuna, which moved them three points clear of second-placed Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table.

Girona, meanwhile, have drawn each of their last three games in Spain's top flight, and a disappointing campaign has left them in 13th spot in the division, 10 points off sixth-placed Real Betis.

Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides ahead of the contest at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 10

Barcelona wins: 6

Draws: 2

Girona wins: 2

Barcelona and Girona have only locked horns on 10 previous occasions throughout history, and it is the former that lead the head-to-head record, having posted six wins to Girona's two, while there have also been two draws.

The first-ever meeting between the two teams took place in the Copa del Rey back in 1949, with Barcelona running out 9-0 winners, and the pair would not go to battle again until September 2017 in La Liga.

Girona have actually been victorious in two of the last three league meetings between the two sides, including a famous double during the 2023-24 campaign, with an extraordinary campaign seeing Michel's side finish third in the table.

Barcelona did manage to gain some revenge when the pair met earlier this season, though, recording a 4-1 victory.

This is a fixture which has produced goals, with Barcelona averaging more than three goals per game against Girona, netting 31 times, while the White and Reds have found the back of the net on 12 occasions.

Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez are the joint-leading goalscorers in this particular fixture, having both netted four times against Girona during their time with Barcelona.
