LiontipsGirona vs Osasuna. Betting Tip (odds 4.00) and bets on the match of the Spanish championship
Command Analysis
Current form
After finishing last season on the dizzying heights of third place, Girona have had a far less promising start to this campaign. The hosts are yet to win a league title after two rounds and have yet to adjust to life without 2023/24 La Liga top scorer Artem Dovbyk. However, fans can be optimistic about finding the net here against one of the nine teams they beat both home and away last year. One significant mitigating factor for Girona’s poor start is the fact that they have started with two away games in a row.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of the game are Valeri (virus), Justin (shoulder injury) and Artero (ankle injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Both teams have scored in the last five La Liga head-to-head matches, with Girona opening the scoring in the last four of those encounters
- Girona are unbeaten in 17 of their last 19 league games at home
- In five of Girona's last six home league games, goals have been scored in both halves.
Estimated line-up : Juan Carlos - Martinez, Juanpe, Akobishvili, Romeru - Urena, China, Almena, Solis, Misehou - Stuani.
Current form
Osasuna have started their season with two home league games and remain unbeaten at this early stage under new manager Vicente Moreno. Appointed in the summer, Moreno can be confident of extending his positive start after being unbeaten in his first three games in four of his last five starts in charge, although that is under threat as he has not won in his last four head-to-head encounters with Girona. On the plus side, the Blaugrana have won their first away game in four of their last five campaigns.
Disqualifications and injuries
Baria (knee injury), Munoz (foot injury) and Peña (muscle injury) will not be able to play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Vicento Moreno has not lost his first three games in four of his last five tournaments as a coach
- The last eight visits to Catalonia for the visitors ended without a win
- Both teams have scored in four of the last five head-to-head matches
Approximate lineup : Herrera - Herrando, Arezo, Catena, Cruz - Garcia, Moncayola, Torro, Gomez - Budimir, Oroz.

1.99Tip and bets
The opponents are serious about the game, but there will be no easy start at home for Girona - the team clearly looks weaker than at the start of the last championship and is unlikely to easily beat the difficult Osasuna. In addition, the statistics are on the side of the "blue garnets", who are quite successful in playing in destruction and will try to take revenge on last year. We expect maximum concentration of events in the center and a minimum of scoring chances.
Our betting tip is total under 2.5 goals and we bet on it with odds of 2.15
Bet on the outcome
It is difficult to give preference to one of the teams, especially since midweek often brings unexpected results. Most likely, due to maximum dedication and great desire, the guests will be able to hold off the onslaught of Girona. In addition, we believe that it is worth paying attention to the option of a peaceful outcome, which, to some extent, could suit everyone today.
The betting tip is a draw and we bet on it for 4.00
Bet on corners
Since we expect an open game from both teams, it is likely that we will see a lot of attacking action from both teams and a decent number of corners in this match.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.62
