GIRONA, Spain (Reuters) - Girona manager Michel said on Friday he is counting on the club's fans to give the team a much needed boost as they prepare to host Real Sociedad in LaLiga on Saturday without the help of key players sidelined by injuries.

After a last-gasp 2-1 victory over Athletic Bilbao which ended a six-game winless streak in all competitions, last year's surprise package Girona will be missing up to eight players, including Pau Lopez, Yaser Asprilla, Bryan Gil and Daley Blind.
