Girona are currently in 10th place in the La Liga standings and have punched above their weight so far this season. The Catalan outfit stunned Real Madrid with a 4-2 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Sevilla, on the other hand, are in 11th place in the league table at the moment and have improved after a poor start to their campaign. The Andalusian giants edged Athletic Bilbao to an important 1-0 victory in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this match.
