Only a Girona win against Real Madrid can maintain the title race in Spain

.

Girona are 2nd in La Liga, 2 points behind Real Madrid. Till now they have lost just once in the league, a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Real.

If they are to stay in the title race, they will have to flip the script tonight. Certain things favour them, such as the fact that Real might be forced to start the game without any natural CBs.

Girona too have absentees of their own in manager Michel and CB Daley Blind both of whom picked up suspensions in the last game.
