Girona made a lot of noise in Spanish football in recent years, making it all the way from Segunda to a Champions League berth. However, the lack of capacity to perform well on such a busy schedule is visible at the moment, and that may be the chance for Leganes to make an upset on this visit.
Girona and Leganes meet on 02.11.2024, with both teams going through a tough period. The match takes place at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi in Girona.

Girona vs. Leganes: Current situation
Girona was one of the top stories in Spanish football last season, but they are just a shadow of that this time around. The participation in the Champions League has taken its toll, and Girona is struggling in La Liga. They are still capable of beating anyone on a good night and hope to end the losing streak when Leganes comes to town.
Leganes is one of the teams with the lowest budget in La Liga, and seeing them out of the relegation zone is good enough. Leganes is one of those teams that spends most of the time on their own half and barely dominates possession against any opponent. That is especially the case when they play on the road, and the visit to Giron will be no exception.
Girona Stats & Form
Girona has found its place on the European football map this season with their first ever Champions League appearance. A 2-0 win against Slovan Bratislava on the last matchday of the elite competition will go down in the history books of the club, but it is a fact that the busy schedule has affected their performance in La Liga. Girona has lost the last two games in the domestic competition, including the last one against one of the worst teams in the league, Las Palmas.
Leganes Stats & Form
Leganes has been under the radar all season long, and the team has done a real step forward, winning three of their last four games in all competitions. The most significant one is the 3-0 win over Celta Vigo, their second in La Liga this year. They played quite well against Atletico Madrid as well but collapsed late in the game. During the week, Leganes won against Ciudad de Lucena in the Copa del Rey, which is a good overture before the trip to Girona.
Girona – Leganes: Head to Head
Girona has won 6 of the last 10 head-to-head games, three of them ended in a tie, and Leganes has only one win. The last time they met was in the 2021-22 Segunda season, when Girona won 3-0 at home and it was 1-1 with Leganes being the host. The only Leganes’ win in this stretch came in February 2021, when they won 2-0 on the road. Five of the last seven games between these two teams ended under 2.5 goals in total.
Girona – Leganes Odds
Girona is a big favorite to win this game with the odds of 1.68 at 22bet. The visiting team is given 5.30 while the draw is at 3.70. The total goal line is set at 2.5 with 2.18 for over and 1.68 for under.

Betting tip and prediction: Girona - Leganes (02.11.2024)
Girona’s story has been one of the most outstanding in recent years in European football, as this small club managed to go all the way from the Segunda to the Champions League. Many would call that an overnight success, but the team management made the right moves to go this high. Still, making it to the Champions League came with a huge price tag since Girona is struggling in the domestic competition. Playing on both fronts with a limited roster has taken its toll, and Girona has a long list of injured players going into this one. Head coach Michel will have a real trouble putting together a midfield line with players who have played together before. Yaser Asprilla, Ivan Martin, Jhon Elmer Solis Romero, and Viktor Tsygankov are all out, and only Yangel Herrera of the available players in this position has seen some significant playing time this season. Things are not much better in the offensive line either, as both Abel Ruiz and Portu are out. On the other side, Leganes has their full roster available, and this is the chance they’ve been waiting for in the hope of the first win on the road. Leganes proved they can be dangerous in a recent win over Celta Vigo and will try to bring the same aggressiveness to Girona. Juan Cruz has grown into a top-level striker, and he benefits whenever coach Borja Jiménez allows more offensive tactics. That will definitely be the case in this one, as Girona is facing a huge question. Whether they will go all-in with the roster they have in this game or will try to make a load management before their visit to PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League on Tuesday. Whether their decision is, we go with a double chance on Leganes in this one.
