High-flying Girona will round off the calendar year with a trip to the Benito Villamarín for Thursday's clash with Real Betis.
While the visitors go into matchday 18 as the league leaders, Manuel Pellegrini's side are currently sitting in seventh position.
However, with the two losses in that period taking place in the Europa League, Los Verdiblancos head into Thursday's contest with aspirations of extending their unbeaten league run, which currently stands at 12 matches (W4, D8).
Having struggled to convert draws into victories, it was perhaps unsurprising to see Betis play out a goalless affair with Real Sociedad on Sunday – a result that represented their fourth draw in the last five La Liga matches (W1).
After going up against Real Madrid and Real Sociedad in their previous two league outings, matters do not get any easier with the current leaders set to visit Andalusia for the final match of 2023.
