Girona hosts Castellón at Montilivi this Saturday at 18:30 in matchday four of LaLiga Hypermotion, a clash that coach Miguel Ángel Ramírez calls a 'fire test' for a team arriving after falling to Sporting de Gijón by 0-2. The Catalan side, leading the table with the category's best offense, seeks to regain victory against a rival occupying the mid-table and arriving after drawing against Gimnàstic. Jakobsen and Ceccherini, carrying knocks, have been cleared and will be available for the squad, a boost that reinforces the coach's options for this key promotion battle. Girona, with 33 goals for and 45 against this season, presents a -12 goal difference that contrasts with its offensive power, headed by Asprilla, the Liga's top scorer with four goals. The Gerundine side, direct promotion candidate, bets on offensive power as the main argument to remain in the fight for the lead, 41 points behind Barcelona, though the recent defeat to Sporting leaves a wound they will try to heal before their home crowd. Coach Miguel Ángel Ramírez counts on Jakobsen and Ceccherini's return to add solidity to a defense that conceded two goals in the last two outings, while the attack, with Bryan Gil, Vanat, Abel Ruiz, David López and Gazzaniga, sums European experience that could prove decisive in a high-intensity match. Castellón, meanwhile, will try to take advantage of Girona's defensive instability to earn points away from home, though recent history at Montilivi favors the home side, which won last season and will aim to repeat the dose on Saturday. The referee appointed for the match will be José María Sánchez Martínez, tasked with controlling a duel where high pressing and intensity will be protagonists from the first whistle. With Gerundine fans expectant and the team needing three points to stay in the upper bracket, the stage is set for a vibrant match that could define Girona's aspirations in the early 2026/27 season.
