Espanyol face Girona in a Catalan clash between two sides showing solid recent form. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 1-1 draw. The hosts come into this one unbeaten in four of their last five (wwwld) and boosted by the return of Pol Lozano from suspension. At home, los Periquitos remain inconsistent but competitive, winning 50% of their games and averaging 2.00 goals per match. Defensively, they concede 1.25 at home, though their underlying numbers—1.42 xGA—suggest they tend to allow good chances. They have kept a clean sheet in 25% of home matches, but also failed to score in 50%, showing their attacking swings.
Girona travel with no fresh injuries following a 1-0 win over Osasuna, though Lass Kourouma is suspended. The visitors remain more unpredictable on the road, winning 33% of away matches but involved in high-event games, averaging 2.83 total goals. Their away BTTS rate stands at a strong 83%, backed by 1.36 expected goals and a leaky 1.67 goals conceded per away fixture. Despite that, Girona have momentum, winning three of their last four.
Espanyol are a real force to be reckoned with at home and and given Girona's away BTTS record (83%), Both Teams to Score bet should be considered. Additionally, Half-Time Draw and Draw bets seem interesting.
This Primera Division match will be played on Friday 16 January 2026 at 20:00.
