Impact Gumbau could be back with the team to face Girona after missing last match due to undisclosed issues.

Impact Gumbau was a late scratch for the Jan. 3 matchup against Cadiz, and even though Medina's report was encouraging, it seems Granada will take all the precautions they can to avoid another setback.
