On Wednesday, Girona were shockingly eliminated from the Copa del Rey. Their defeat came at the hands of Logroñés, a team from the Segunda Federación, with a 0-1 loss in a penalty shootout. This setback has only increased the pressure on the Blanco-Rojos, who have not won in their last three matches. Girona currently sits in 8th place in the La Liga standings. Unfortunate news for coach Michel includes recurring injuries to Viktor Tsyhankov and Yasser Asprilla. Additionally, key midfielder Yangel Herrera is also sidelined. The top scorers for Girona this season are Cristian Stuani (4+1) and Bryan Gil (2+3).
The Blancos had an unfortunate trip to Bilbao last Wednesday. Their loss to Athletic was their fifth of the season across all competitions under Carlo Ancelotti. A particularly disappointing performance came from Kylian Mbappé. The French star not only missed a penalty but also appeared detached during attacking phases of play. Currently, Real Madrid occupies 2nd place in the standings based on lost points. Notably, their away form has been unimpressive, with just 12 points from 7 matches. Adding to the challenge are the injuries to key players. Among the notable absences are David Alaba, Eduardo Camavinga, Dani Carvajal, Éder Militão, and Vinícius Júnior.
