Real Madrid vs Girona score prediction
Neutrals will be keenly watching this match unfold on Saturday and plenty will be cheering for Girona against established giants Madrid. A victory for the visitors would certainly make the title race even more exciting.
However, Los Blancos have dropped points in just two of their home games in front of their own fans so far this season. Add in the quality and experience Girona will be missing in Blind and Herrera and it seems likely Madrid will extend their lead at the top of the table.
Prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Girona
