Girona vs Osasuna Odds
Girona Team News
Girona has experienced an anticipated downturn in their exceptional season, which has allowed Real Madrid to build a seven-point lead at the top of the table. Michel’s squad has only clinched one victory in their last five league games, suffering three defeats, including a recent loss to Mallorca. Furthermore, they’ve also been defeated by both Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao.
Now, Girona must keep a watchful eye on their rivals, with Barcelona just a point behind in third place and Atletico Madrid trailing by four points in fourth. Despite this, Girona remains nine points clear of fifth-placed Athletic Bilbao, although finishing in the top four would still mark a remarkable achievement for a club that has previously finished tenth twice and eighteenth once in their last three campaigns.
Girona has shown strength on their home ground this season, collecting 32 points from 13 matches, securing 10 victories.
Five players will be sidelined for Girona on Saturday due to injury: Yangel Herrera, David Lopez, Ricardo Artero, Joel Roca, and Toni Villa. Daley Blind is expected to return to the center of the home team’s defense for this match, while Portu is likely to feature in the forward line. Consequently, Ivan Martin may take on a deeper midfield role alongside Aleix Garcia, with Jhon Solis expected to remain on the bench following a subpar performance in the last game.
Osasuna Team News
Osasuna has been relatively steady in their away fixtures this season, gathering 15 points from 13 matches, with four wins, three draws, and six losses. Jagoba Arrasate’s team also comes into this match in good form, securing 10 points from their last four league games, defeating Real Sociedad, Cadiz, and Alaves, and drawing with Las Palmas, with their last defeat being at home against Celta Vigo at the beginning of February. Los Rojillos have climbed to 10th place in the table, just one point behind eighth-placed Las Palmas, and are now only four points behind seventh-placed Real Sociedad.
Osasuna secured a point in a 1-1 draw when they visited Estadi Montilivi last season, but Girona emerged victorious with a 4-2 scoreline when they met in the reverse fixture in November. However, Arrasate’s side has held Sevilla and Las Palmas to draws in their last four away matches and secured a 1-0 victory against Real Sociedad, while narrowly losing 1-0 to Barcelona at the end of January.
Regarding injuries, David Garcia and Kike Barja are unavailable for selection, while Ruben Pena is doubtful due to muscle issues. Barja sustained a knee injury in the 15th minute of the clash with Alaves last time out, while David Garcia was forced off the field in the second half, so there will likely be at least two changes to the away team’s starting lineup for this match. Unai Garcia is expected to come into the back four, while Moi Gomez is likely to benefit from Barja’s absence, having replaced him from the bench in the 1-0 victory over Alaves.

Girona vs Osasuna Prediction
