La Liga
After the World Cup hiatus, Kirona, a mid-table team, is back at home to meet the challenge of Vallecano in the first round of the matchup. It's interesting to note that Kirona's center midfielder Rania, who overcame an ankle injury during the World Cup, has suffered a biceps injury and is expected to be out of action for six weeks, which will be a major blow to the team's tactical layout.

For Vallecano, defense stalwart Alejandro Cataner and star midfielder Oscar Valentino are also suspended for yellow card accumulation, which will make the team more cautious in the first match. Considering that Girona has drawn five times in half-time in their last six league matches, this match is likely to be another half-time draw.
