C.D Leganés will receive Girona F.C this Sunday (16:00h) at Estadio Municipal Butarque. It will be the fifth matchday of LaLiga SmartBank. The pepineros will look for their thrid consecutive win at home facing the catalanes, who are chasing their first points.
C.D Leganés has won its first two home matches at Butarque after defeating U.D Las Palmas (1-0) and F.C Cartagena (3-1). However, the team is still missing for a win away. Those are the perfect reasons for the team to continue with their streak at home and try to win their third consecutive match at Butarque.
The pepineros’ manager José Luis Martí will have the absences of Rosales, Omeruo and Shibasaki who are playing with their national teams by these days. According to the manager’s declarations on the last press conference, it is possible that Jonathan Silva, Róber Ibáñez, and Kevin Bua will not be able to be with the squad because of physical difficulties. Cuéllar and Bustinza are clear from injuries and are available. Luis Perea is also in doubt.
Girona looks for its first points with many changes
Girona F.C will look to get its first points after starting the league later. Thay played the promotion playoffs last season and have lost their first two matches against Real Sporting (2-0) and C.F Fuenlabrada (0-1). The catalanes have had an intense summer with several changes in their squad.
Last week the players Alcalá, Jairo, Zeballos and Granell left the club, while Nahuel Bustos, Bárcenas, Cristóforo and Mamadou Sylla arrived. The manager will not be able to count with the goalkeeper Muric and the central defender Ramalho who are playing with their national teams, Stuani is currently injured and will not also be able to be with the team. The former pepinero Gerard Gumabu who played a total of 51 games with the team between 2017 and 2019 will be back at Butarque.
Mr. D. Juan Luis Pulido Santana will be the referee.
