The starting lineups for each team are based on their last match in this tournament.
Girona
The Catalans have lost their last two league matches, which is their second such streak this season. After a home defeat to Real Sociedad (0-1), the team lost away to Las Palmas by the same scoreline, a team that had only one La Liga victory in 2024/25 before that. As a result, Michel Sanchez's charges remained in 13th place, but their lead over the relegation zone has shrunk to three points.
Midfielders Ivan Martin, Oriol Romeu, and John Solis, as well as forwards Bryan Gil and Portu, will miss the match due to injuries.
- No more than two goals were scored in 5 of Girona's last 6 games in La Liga.
- At least one team did not score in 7 of the Catalans' last 10 league encounters.
- The club has not lost in the second half in 18 of their last 20 home matches in La Liga (13 wins and 5 draws).
Leganes
The team is a step lower in the league table and has only one point less than Girona. Borja Jimenez's charges unexpectedly thrashed Celta Vigo 3-0 at home in the last round, even though the club had not won in the league for eight matches before that (4 draws and 4 losses). Also, it's worth noting that Leganes has scored only 9 goals in the current La Liga season, which is just one more than Getafe, Real Sociedad, and Valencia, who have the worst attack records this season.
- More than two goals were not scored in 7 of the club's last 9 La Liga games.
- Only 4 goals were scored in the first half of Leganes' last 11 league matches.
- The team from the Madrid suburbs is on a 6-match winless streak in La Liga (4 draws and 2 losses).
Girona vs Leganes: Match Prediction
The Catalans are in very poor form, slowly sliding down the league table. Girona has significant injury problems, especially in the midfield line, and the club has yet to find a worthy replacement for Artem Dovbyk. In their last seven La Liga matches, Michel Sanchez's charges have managed to score more than one goal only once.
Although Leganes looks weak on the road, they rarely concede a lot of goals. In their last nine away games in La Liga, the club only conceded more than one goal twice. Also, after 11 rounds, Borja Jimenez's team has conceded only 12 goals. For comparison, Real Madrid has conceded 10 times, and Barcelona 11 times.
I predict that the significantly weakened Catalans will not be able to score more than once. My prediction is "Girona U1.5" with odds of .
Villarreal
Rayo Vallecano
