The break came for a bad time for Vallecano who are unbeaten in 6 La Liga games. For Girona there is also only 1 loss in last 6, so do we smell a low-scoring draw here? There is an advantage in the actual league table for Vallecano, but the xG-data suggests that they have had more or less similar season quality-wise so far.

In the head-to-head history Vallecano, and especially coach Iraola has been a bogey man to Girona who have beaten his team only once in last seven, and even when they did it was a first leg promotion play-off which they finally lost in aggregate. It is notable that both teams have been promoted recently via play-offs after finishing 6th in Segunda!

The problem is that it is already distant history now, let us take a look at the break performances, results and team news.

Girona have played 5 games in friendlies and in the cup, won only of the matches, and most worryingly got kicked out of the cup by a lower league team. Already on the previous round they had to go to extra time.

Vallecano played 6 games, and lost two of them away at Fenerbahce and Newcastle, but at least they continue in the cup after winning the previous round game easily and now by winning after penalties.

The injury situation is not optimal at either camp. Girona miss Bernardo, Juanpe, Ibrahima Kebé, Javi Hernández y Reinier Jesús.

Mostly defensive - and central absentees there.

Vallecano are without Catena, Óscar Valentín, Nteka y Salvi. Mostly missed are df Catena and mf Valentín.

Likely lineups:

Who to follow?

Girona's midfielder Aleix Garcia has been showing his class round after round, as is likely to head to a top club soon.

At Vallecano the keeper Dmitrievski has been superb, Falcao is always Falcao, Isi and Trejo are energetic and effective, but the biggest interest after this match has been played will be on Raul de Tomas who will finally be let to play. He is motivated, rested and classy and will lead Vallecano to a top-10 finish!

对于6场西甲不败的巴列卡诺来说，这是一个糟糕的时刻。赫罗纳在6强中也只输了1场，所以我们是否闻到了低分平局的味道?巴列卡诺在实际的联赛中有优势，但xg的数据表明他们到目前为止在质量上或多或少都有相似的赛季。

在对阵历史上，巴列卡诺，尤其是教练伊伊拉拉一直是赫罗纳队的忌魔人物，赫罗纳队在过去七场比赛中只击败过自己的球队一次，即使他们做到了，他们也只是在首回合的升级附加赛中最终输掉了比赛。值得注意的是，这两支球队最近通过附加赛获得了第六名!

问题是现在这已经是遥远的历史了，让我们来看看他们的休息表现，结果和球队新闻。

赫罗纳在友谊赛和杯赛中打了5场比赛，只赢了一场，最令人担忧的是被一支低级别联赛球队踢出了杯赛。在上一轮比赛中，他们不得不进入加时赛。

巴列卡诺踢了6场比赛，其中两场在客场输给了费内巴切和纽卡斯尔，但至少他们在上一轮轻松获胜后继续在杯赛中获胜，现在又在点球大战中获胜。

双方的伤病情况都不理想。赫罗纳小姐贝尔纳多，胡安佩，伊卜拉希马Kebé，哈维Hernández雷尼尔Jesús。

主要是防守球员和中路球员缺席。

巴列卡诺没有卡特纳，Óscar Valentín，恩特卡和萨尔维。大部分遗漏的是df Catena和mf Valentín。

可能的阵容:

追随谁?

赫罗纳的中场球员亚历克斯·加西亚在一轮又一轮的比赛中展示了自己的水平，他很可能很快就会前往一家顶级俱乐部。

在巴列卡诺，门将德米特里耶夫斯基表现出色，法尔考一直是法尔考，伊西和特雷霍精力充沛，效率很高，但这场比赛结束后，最大的兴趣将是劳尔·德·托马斯，他最终将被允许上场比赛。他很有动力，休息得很好，很有风度，他将带领巴列卡诺进入前十!
