SD Logroñés vs Girona II - Segunda División RFEF - Group 2

All eyes turn to the home ground on September 20, 2026 as SD Logroñés welcome Girona II in a Segunda División RFEF - Group 2 encounter that promises tension, intrigue and no shortage of subplot. O'Neill made five changes for Celtic's midweek win at St Johnstone as he rested some key players ahead of Sunday's clash.

Both camps will view the Segunda División RFEF - Group 2 meeting at the home ground as an opportunity to put a marker down, regardless of where they currently stand. The hosts are badly in need of a turnaround, with DL in their last five and a win rate of just 0% highlighting their struggles. Girona II travel in decent nick, WL in their last five and a win rate of 50% this season. Where SD Logroñés have leaned on defensive discipline, Girona II have often taken the initiative going forward, and that stylistic difference should shape the contest. Meanwhile, Paige Bueckers struggled to find her rhythm, going 5-for-13 for 15 points in the loss.

How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. SD Logroñés will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Girona II will back themselves to cause problems on the break. After the loss, a lot of questions began to be raised about their different approach to preparing for the game.

Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. Michael Carrick has had his critics since taking the Man Utd job in January and some of them are former teammates of the midfielder.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 3-3 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. Whatever the outcome, the Segunda División RFEF - Group 2 fixture promises a meaningful contest with real implications for both clubs. The club are understood to favour a profile closer to Aurelien Tchouameni or a Premier League‑proven alternative rather than Manu Kone.
