RCD Espanyol vs Girona

Current streaks

Recent form

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol have shown a mixed but generally positive form in their recent fixtures, with three wins, two draws, and only one loss in their last six matches. Despite sitting 15th in the league table, the Catalan side have displayed resilience, particularly in defence, conceding just 0.83 goals per game over this period. Their most impressive result came against Real Madrid, securing a 1-0 victory against the Spanish giants. Espanyol have been involved in relatively low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their matches featuring under 2.5 goals. However, they've managed to find the net consistently, scoring in all six games. The team's ability to grind out results is evident, with two-thirds of their matches seeing both teams score. While there are no extended winning or losing streaks to report, Espanyol's current unbeaten run of three matches (two wins and a draw) suggests an upturn in form that could help them climb the table.

Girona

Girona have been experiencing a difficult run of form, with only one win in their last six matches across all competitions. The Catalan side have suffered four defeats in this period, including a Champions League loss to Arsenal, and have conceded a concerning 12 goals whilst scoring just six. Their defensive frailties are highlighted by a nine-game streak without a clean sheet, and the fact that both teams have scored in 67% of their recent matches. Notably, Girona's games have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their last six fixtures seeing over 2.5 goals. Their league position has likely suffered as a result of this poor form, with the team currently sitting 13th in La Liga after 26 games played.

Recent home/away form

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol have shown resilience at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches at the RCDE Stadium. Whilst they've struggled to secure victories, managing only two wins, they've proven difficult to defeat, with four draws in this period. The team's defensive prowess is evident, conceding just 0.67 goals per game and keeping two clean sheets. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring only one goal per game on average. The majority of their home fixtures have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of matches seeing under 2.5 goals. Despite their 15th position in the league, Espanyol have demonstrated an ability to compete with top teams, notably securing a 1-0 victory against Real Madrid. Their home form suggests a team that's tough to break down but lacks the cutting edge to consistently turn draws into wins.

Girona

Girona's recent away form has been particularly poor, with the team currently on a four-match losing streak on the road. Their only away victory in the last six games came against Deportivo Alavés, where they managed a narrow 1-0 win. Girona have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just three goals in their last six away matches, averaging a mere 0.5 goals per game. Defensively, they have been vulnerable, conceding 10 goals in this period, with an average of 1.67 goals conceded per game. The 3-0 defeat to Athletic Club stands out as their heaviest loss during this run. Notably, Girona have kept only one clean sheet in their last six away games, highlighting their defensive frailties. With both teams scoring in only 33% of these matches and an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, Girona's away performances have been characterised by low-scoring affairs and a lack of attacking potency.
