Leganés form and stats

Leganés have collected 18 points from their La Liga 2 home games so far after 4-6-3. Two home wins in a row for Leganés bring valid hopes of a third.

A good away victory last time out for Leganés, who won 3-1 against Amorebieta (placed 19th). Defender González got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.62/10. González won 8 of 11 duels.

Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Real Zaragoza.

This is expected to be a close game, with Leganés perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Leganés as a small favourite), we find eight games. Leganés has won three of these, drawn one and lost four.

Leganés are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 13 games. From these home matches, Leganés have conceded only 12 goals.

Girona form and stats

The visitors are W4-D3-L6 on the road this term. That's in the La Liga 2.

This match can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus SD Eibar with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Defender González was the best team player with a rating of 7.05. González won 6 of 8 duels.

Before that, Girona travelled to Real Valladolid and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Girona playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were four Girona wins, six draws and one defeat.

Girona have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 13 league away games 14 goals have been scored. 18 goals have been conceded by Girona in these games.
