Each team's starting lineup is listed from their last match in this tournament.
Girona
The Catalans have lost their last two league matches. This is, by the way, their second such streak this season. After a home defeat to Real Sociedad (0-1), the team lost by the same score away to Las Palmas, which had only one La Liga win in 2024/25 before that. As a result, Michel Sanchez's charges remain in 13th place, but their lead over the relegation zone has shrunk to three points.
Midfielders Ivan Martin, Oriol Romeu, and Jon Solis, as well as forwards Bryan Gil and Porto, will miss the match due to injuries.
- No more than two goals have been scored in 5 of the last 6 Girona games in La Liga.
- At least one team did not score in 7 of the last 10 Catalan encounters in the league.
- The club has not lost in the second half in 18 of the last 20 home La Liga matches (13 wins and 5 draws).
Leganes
The team is just one step below in the league table and has only one point less than Girona. In the last round, Borja Jimenez's charges surprisingly thrashed Celta 3-0 at home, although before that, the club had not won in eight league matches (4 draws and 4 losses). Also, it is worth noting that Leganes has scored only 9 goals in the current La Liga season, which is one more than Getafe, Real Sociedad, and Valencia, who have the worst attacking records this season.
- More than two goals were not scored in 7 of the previous 9 Leganes games in La Liga.
- A total of 4 goals were scored in the first half of Leganes' last 11 league matches.
- The team from the suburbs of Madrid has a 6-match winless streak in La Liga (4 draws and 2 losses).
Girona vs. Leganes: match prediction
The Catalans are in very poor shape. The team is slowly sliding down the league table. Girona has significant problems with injured players, especially in the midfield, and the club has not been able to find a decent replacement for Artem Dovbyk in the attack. In the last seven La Liga matches, Michel Sanchez's charges have managed to score more than one goal only once.
Although Leganes looks weak away, at the same time, they rarely concede a lot of goals. In the previous nine away matches in La Liga, the club conceded more than one goal only twice. Additionally, after 11 rounds, Borja Jimenez's charges have conceded only 12 goals. For comparison, Real Madrid has picked the ball out of their net 10 times, and Barcelona 11 times.
I assume that the significantly weakened Catalans will not be able to score more than once. My prediction is "Girona U1.5" with the odds of 1.95.
