Girona Faces Alavés in Crucial LaLiga Match
Girona, Spain – Girona FC is set to host Deportivo Alavés at Montilivi on November 8, 2025, in a pivotal LaLiga match. The home team currently sits at the bottom of the standings with just seven points from their first eleven matches.
After a recent 2-1 loss to Getafe, Girona is looking to rebound, needing a win to escape the relegation zone. They are only two points shy of safety, represented by Valencia. “This match is vital for our team and our coach, Míchel,” said a spokesperson for Girona. “We must show our strength at home.”
Alavés arrives in a contrasting position, sitting in eighth place with 15 points. They are coming off a 2-1 victory over Espanyol and are keen to secure a spot in European competition. Coach Chacho Coudet’s team has shown resilience, especially defensively, being one of the teams that concede the fewest goals in LaLiga.
Míchel has made changes to his starting eleven, integrating Bryan Gil for the match against Alavés. He emphasized the importance of starting strong in front of their home crowd. The Girona lineup includes Gazzaniga, Arnau, Blind, Vitor Reis, Álex Moreno, Tsygankov, Witsel, Iván Martín, Ounahi, and Vanat.
The Alavés team, expected to feature Sivera, J. Otto, Tenaglia, Parada, and Yusi, will rely on Mariano and Toni Martínez for goals. With Lucas Boyé suspended, Mariano takes his place as Alavés aims to cement their position for European football.
Fans are eager for the kickoff at 2:00 PM local time, with many anticipating a fierce battle as both teams vie for crucial points. Girona hopes to improve on their poor defensive record, having conceded 24 goals this season. Alavés, meanwhile, aims to extend their positive run in the league.
