Football fans in South Africa, get ready for a thrilling pre-season encounter! Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to face Girona FC in a highly anticipated friendly match. Let's dive into what to expect from this clash.
Girona's Pre-Season Form
Girona's pre-season form has been a mixed bag, showcasing some instability. They've recorded two wins, one draw, and a loss, including a 0-2 defeat to Marseille. The Spanish club is actively working to bolster its squad, reportedly negotiating with Manchester City for loan deals of young talents and having already secured the signature of Thomas Lemar from Atletico Madrid.
Wolves' New-Look Squad
Wolverhampton Wanderers are entering the new season with significant changes to their squad. The departure of key striker Mateus Cunha to Manchester United is a major blow. To compensate, the Wolves have brought in Jorgen Larsen and Per Lopez from Celta. Their pre-season friendlies have yielded a 1-1 draw against Stoke City and a 1-3 loss to Lens.
Head-to-Head
Interestingly, Girona and Wolverhampton have never faced each other before. This adds an element of unpredictability to the match, as both teams will be looking to establish dominance.
Prediction
With no clear favourite, predicting the outcome of this match is challenging. Girona has played more pre-season games, but their results haven't been consistently impressive. Wolverhampton's recent form is also mixed. Given both teams' attacking capabilities, a high-scoring game seems likely.
Betting Tip
A good bet could be on both teams to score (BTTS) at a coefficient of 1.57. Another option is Total Over 2.5 goals.
