Matchday 23 of the La Liga season sees Sevilla vs Girona take place on 8 February at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium. Sevilla vs Girona: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Sevilla
After a short two-match unbeaten run in La Liga, the home team suffered a heavy defeat to Mallorca earlier in the week (1:4). That leaves Sevilla with just one win in their last six league fixtures, and in four matches during that spell the club failed to earn even a draw. Their position in the standings is becoming increasingly dangerous: ahead of Saturday’s meeting, the side sit 15th, with only a two-point gap to the relegation zone. It is also worth noting that in the current La Liga campaign, Sevilla have conceded 37 goals in total – the worst record in the competition.
- The club have failed to keep a clean sheet in six La Liga matches.
- Sevilla’s uncompromising home run in the Spanish top flight stands at nine games (four wins, five defeats).
- At least two goals have been scored in nine of Sevilla’s last 10 matches in this competition.
Potential Sevilla Lineup (3-5-2)*
Odysseas Vlachodimos – Fabio Cardoso, Kike Salas, Jose Carmona – Juanlu Sanchez, Gabriel Suazo, Peke Fernandez, Lucien Agoume, Batista Mendy – Neal Maupay, Akor Adams.
Defender Marcao Teixeira and midfielders Ruben Vargas and Adnan Januzaj will miss out through injury. Defender Nemanja Gudelj returns after suspension. The participation of defenders Cesar Azpilicueta and Tanguy Nianzou is in doubt.
Girona
Girona began 2026 in very respectable fashion, but their most recent La Liga outing ended in a surprise defeat to basement side Oviedo (0:1). After a three-match winning streak, Girona have taken just one point from their last two league games. As a result, the away side have quickly dropped out of the top 10 and now sit 12th in La Liga, three points above the relegation zone. The club are also behind two direct rivals on tie-breakers only. Notably, Girona are also among the league’s most conceding sides this season, shipping just one goal fewer than Sevilla (36 goals) in total.
- The club have scored in five of their previous seven Spanish top-flight matches.
- Girona’s uncompromising away run in this competition stands at five matches (three wins, two defeats).
- Both teams have scored in seven of the Catalans’ last 10 away matches in La Liga.
Potential Girona Lineup (4-3-3)*
Marc-Andre ter Stegen – Arnau Martinez, Daley Blind, Vitor Reis, Alex Moreno – Fran Beltran, Ivan Martin, Thomas Lemar – Bryan Gil, Viktor Tsygankov, Vladyslav Vanat.
Due to injuries, goalkeepers Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Juan Carlos Martin, defender Alex Moreno, midfielders Azzedine Ounahi and Donny van de Beek, as well as forward Portu, are unavailable.

Sevilla vs Girona: Match Prediction
Sevilla are dangerously close to the relegation zone. For several months now, the home side have averaged only one win in every four to five La Liga matches. One of the main reasons for this situation is the constant mistakes at the back, but it is no less important that the club rarely produce the required cutting edge in attack. In 11 of their previous 14 league matches, Sevilla have scored no more than one goal. Home support can hardly be considered a key factor either, as even in front of their own fans the side have cleared the two-goal mark in only two of their last seven matches in La Liga.
Girona, like Sevilla, are among the most conceding clubs in La Liga, but unlike their upcoming opponents, the visitors have improved in this area over time. The away side have not suffered any major defensive collapses for a long while, and in each of their last five league matches of 2026, Girona either kept a clean sheet or conceded exactly one goal. A similar trend can be seen in La Liga away fixtures: across the club’s previous six away games, they conceded more than once only in a visit to Real Betis (0:3).
Prediction: Sevilla, under 1.5 goals
* For each team, the starting XI listed is from their previous match in this competition.
