Girona vs Tenerife: Analysis and Prediction – Girona will host Tenerife in the Liga Endesa third round.
Girona vs Tenerife Odds
Girona Team News
Girona has impressively kicked off the new season in the Liga Endesa. They won the first three games against some of the best teams like Valencia and Gran Canaria. Last weekend, they lost to Real Madrid, but that’s certainly not an opponent where a win is expected.
Up until the last round last season, Girona fought to avoid relegation. When it was announced during the summer that Aito Garcia Reneses wouldn’t be the head coach in the new season, and Marc Gasol wouldn’t play for a certain period, everyone assumed they would face a large number of losses again. However, Girona benefited from the whole situation, and if the morning indicates the day, they definitely won’t be a team lingering at the bottom of the table this campaign.
Ike Iroegbu has emerged as the team’s leader, and if he continues at this pace, he’s capable of scoring over 15 points against anyone. If he and Quino Colom perform at a high level this weekend, Girona can certainly hope for their fourth win of the season.
Tenerife Team News
If Girona can be called the most pleasant surprise of the first four rounds of the Liga Endesa, then Tenerife is definitely the least pleasant one. No one could have predicted they would be at 1-3, and it was very close to being 0-4. Fortunately for them, last weekend they won against Breogan after overtime.
Tenerife’s defense has always been at the top of the Liga Endesa in previous seasons. That’s not the case now. It seems that the years have caught up with Marcelinho Huertas, Giorgi Shermadini and Sasu Salin, and it will be difficult for this trio to maintain a high level for another season. Tenerife didn’t do anything to refresh the team during the summer, and this could cost them dearly. Besides weaker defense than usual, their three-point shooting percentages are not as expected from this roster.
The game against Girona could be a turning point for Tenerife. A convincing win would change the impression significantly, while another loss would mean that they definitely won’t be one of the best Spanish clubs this season, and even reaching the playoffs could be out of reach.

Girona vs Tenerife Prediction
There is no doubt that Girona has left a significantly better impression than Tenerife in the current part of the season. However, Tenerife’s group of players has been among the top five teams in the Liga Endesa for years, and it’s highly unlikely that they could have experienced such a downgrade in just one summer. It’s time for an answer, and Girona is the perfect opponent for that.
