- Home form: Girona have failed to win their only home league match so far in LaLiga 2 2026/2027 (D1, L0) and score an average of 1.00 goals, conceding the same.
- Away form: Las Palmas are unbeaten in 4 of their last 5 matches (W3, D1, L1) in all competitions, winning their only away match so far in LaLiga 2 2026/2027 (W1) without conceding a goal.
- Head-to-head: The recent head-to-head between these sides saw Girona win 3 of the last 4 in all competitions, with the other going to Las Palmas. Both sides have never drawn in their last 4 meetings.
Catalan clash of styles
Girona FC, the Blanquivermells, play host to Las Palmas, Los amarillos, in a Segunda clash that has promotion buzz, and plenty of things at stake on Saturday.
Girona are the favorites at 1.7, ahead of Las Palmas at 4.6 and the draw at 3.6, but the visitors arrive in superior form and the match will be a battle of styles. Girona are a compact and transition-orientated team, while Las Palmas are a possession team with width and full-back support. The two clubs may play in different ways, but their stats and recent form tell us that this should be a cagey clash.
Girona have the home edge
Managerial aims
Girona boss Quique Alvarez has inherited a clear set of objectives, to restore the club's brave identity and put the sharpness back into their pressing style. In their five games so far, it hasn't worked out, with the trio reading as a slog that all would rather forget, 1-4 defeat at home to Arsenal, 1-1 draw at home to Leganes, and 2-1 defeat away at Cordoba.
Therefore, it's probably not fair to judge the new boss on their results. They will be looking for a response here, after arriving into this weekend's game without a win in five in all competitions (D2, L3).
Visitors' form
Las Palmas are on a two-game winning streak, having beaten Albacete 2-1 at home and AD Ceuta 2-0 on the road. Rubén De la Barrera looks to have made his mark as their boss in quick time, with the team coming out and pressing the ball with intent, playing a faster pace, and looking to dominate the game from the get-go.
Las Palmas could surprise Girona
Girona have won this fixture 3 of the last 4 times they've faced off, with Las Palmas taking the other. However, it's clear to see that Las Palmas have the momentum and are in better shape, sitting top of the early LaLiga 2 2026/2027 table with 6 points from two games, while Girona are all the way down in 17th with just 1 point from two.
We're going with a Girona win, but there will be no landslide. The draw price looks tempting, but we're taking a smaller stake on Under 2.5 goals at 1.73.
Girona are averaging 1.00 scored and 1.00 conceded at the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi, and Las Palmas are averaging 2.00 goals scored and 0.00 goals conceded on the road, which simply screams control and efficiency.
- Jese has the modest return of 1 goal in 2 games in this LaLiga 2 2026/2027 campaign, while Taisei Miyashiro is the creator-in-chief with 2 assists in 2 games.
- Vladyslav Vanat has also chipped in with 2 goals in 5, providing Girona with a lively front two.
