Girona vs Las Palmas Predictions

• Girona have seen over 2.5 goals land in 80% of their home games
• Las Palmas have shipped 1.9 goals per game on the road, losing six times
• The hosts have won four of their five home clashes with bottom-half teams, scoring at least three times in each victory

Girona need a response

Girona really struggled to step up to the challenge of the Champions League, winning only one of their eight games. Their 2-1 home defeat by Arsenal was their final act in the competition and they’re way off the pace in terms of qualifying for it next season.

However, Girona have made the most of their home clashes with sides in the bottom-half. They’ve won four of their first five at home to the bottom 10, only dropping points to Sevilla.

Outside of that, Girona have run rampant, beating Osasuna 4-0, Leganes 4-3, Espanyol 4-1 and Valladolid 3-0. That’s part of a high-scoring home record, with eight of their 10 matches at their own ground featuring three or more goals.

Las Palmas have had three or more goals in 70% of their away trips, while they’ve been beaten six times on the road. The visitors have a decent attacking record going forward, but they’ve also conceded 1.9 goals per game.

This clash looks perfectly set up for Girona to put their European exit behind them. Back the hosts to secure a win with at least three goals scored, while a 4-1 home win is my correct score prediction.
