Girona - Espanyol betting tips and odds

Though we can call Girona the favourites in this matchup, Espanyol are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

The matchup this Saturday is rather one-sided, with Espanyol seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 4.30, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

Girona did not have big expectations heading into their La Liga trip last time out. At the odds of 3.90 they were not greatly favoured to claim an away win. However, after the first 45 minutes it surely looked as if they could actually snatch the three points. Ultimately, they lacked strength to endure the pressure for the entire match. A Rayo Vallecano draw is by no means a bad result though.

Espanyol were the underdogs in their previous La Liga match, but the $RESULT outcome was still below most expectations. Despite a home-field advantage they fell behind quite quickly and were unable to recover, ultimately losing the bout $RESULT.

With 6 concessions over the last 3 matches, Girona will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Espanyol’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Girona are dangerously close to relegation going into round 27. While there’s still time to record better results, the fact they are only three places above the bottom spots means they can’t afford to relax.

Espanyol managed to stay 1 point up from the relegation zone, but their position is far from good. We’re entering the final stretch of the season, which means the competition will only get fiercer. Moreover, their chances of winning any points this Saturday are not looking good.

Girona have had the chance to play against Espanyol several times this season, albeit not always as part of the La Liga. The matchup recorded several draws and failed to produce a winner so far, but the favourites Girona are hoping to finally gain a clear advantage over their opponents.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. I. Kebe, Yangel Herrera, Alexander Callens are all sidelined due to injury, which makes Girona’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet may seem somewhat risky, but it’s a lot more probable than usual. It’s a great pick if the betting value is what you’re after, but some might prefer a somewhat safer choice.
