Friday’s Football Tips: Girona ready to sign off in style against doomed Granada in La Liga

GIRONA have been the La Liga surprise package this season and head into their final game tonight against relegated Granada with a Champions League slot in the bag.

This time two years ago, Girona were celebrating promotion to the top flight so it's a remarkable achievement from Michel and his players to finish in third place, with only Barcelona and Real Madrid above them.

There will be a party atmosphere at Estadi Montilivi as they celebrate a stunning campaign and Girona should sign off with a win against a Granada side already condemned to the drop,

Granada won promotion last term by topping the second tier but they've found the step up too big a task and have won just four games all season.

Girona vs Granada Top Betting Tips

Dispirited Granada are as big as 11/1 for a win at Bet365 and it's hard to see them rousing themselves for a win on the final day. Girona are just 2/9 and even backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time only boosts the odds to 4/6.

So it's better going to the player markets to find a bit of value. Girona hitman Artem Dovbyk is just 4/11 to add to his 21-goal tally but backing him to score a header increases the odds to 3/1.

Brazilian Savinho has been the creative spark for Michel's team and has chipped in with nine assists this term. He's 2/1 to set up another goal tonight with Bet365, who are using his full name of de Oliviera Savio.

Genoa vs Bologna Top Betting Tips

Bologna are another side who have bagged a Champions League slot against the odds and they bring the curtain down on their Serie A campaign with a trip to Genoa tonight.

It looks like this could be manager Thiago Motta's final game at the helm with the former Inter Milan star heavily tipped to take over at Juventus.

Motta will want to sign off with a win and he could get it against a Genoa side who have nothing to play for in the safety of midtable. Bologna are 23/20 favourites but that still looks a decent enough price.

Their last game was a six-goal thriller against Juventus so it could pay to back more goals here. Over 2.5 strikes is priced at 6/5 and that looks worth a punt as it has landed in Genoa's last two home games.

Austria Vienna v Hartberg Top Betting Tips

There's play-off action in Austria tonight as Austria Vienna and Hartberg slug it out for a Europa Conference League place.

Austria Vienna have the momentum after beating Wolfsberger 2-1 in the semi-final to line up a crack at Hartberg but that game only took place on Tuesday so fatigue could be a factor.

Hatberg battered Rapid Vienna 3-0 on Sunday so they are a bit overpriced at 16/5 and that could be worth a punt. They're also evens in the double chance which looks excellent value.

Both teams have been scoring freely of late so it bodes well for a few goals. But you have to go to over 3.5 strikes to get above evens at 5/4.
