Match Facts:
Cordoba:
- A year after being relegated from the Liga BBVA, the Andalusians have the opportunity to bounce straight back into the top flight. They will be hoping to get the upper hand in the tie in front of their fans, who are sure to provide boisterous support to spur on their side against Girona.
- Cordoba head into the first leg of the tie in fine form. They are unbeaten in four games, a sequence of results that enabled them to clinch their spot in the playoffs. What's more, they have recent history on their side: they won both meetings with Girona in the regular season.
Girona:
- The Catalans were teetering on the brink of the relegation zone at points earlier in the season, but their sensational second half of the campaign saw them soar up the table and eventually finish fourth.
- A run of just one defeat in their last 13 matches explains why Pablo Machin's men are oozing confidence right now.
