Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The bet on Girona 2.5 in the Handicap (Alternate) market is substantiated by several key statistics. Girona's recent performance has been weak, but the 2.5 goal handicap provides a safety net. Getafe, while having a better record, has not been dominant, especially at home, where they've only won 1 of their last 5 games. Their average score at home is only slightly higher than Girona's away average (1 vs 0.6). Furthermore, Getafe's average expected goals (xG) at home is only marginally higher than Girona's away xG (1.14 vs 0.72), indicating that the teams' offensive capabilities are closely matched. Additionally, Getafe's average opponent xG at home is higher than Girona's away (1.44 vs 2.16), suggesting that Getafe's defense may struggle. This bet is a strategic choice, leveraging Girona's handicap to offset their recent poor form.

Betting on Girona to win is a calculated risk based on Getafe's recent performance. The home team's record in the last five games (2-0-3) shows inconsistency, including an average score of 1.2 against their opponent's average score of 1.4. Their expected goals (xG) average of 0.84 also falls short of their opponent's xG average of 1.4, indicating that Getafe has been underperforming in terms of creating scoring opportunities. In contrast, Girona's overall record against Getafe (2-0-3) shows that they have managed to secure wins despite their comparatively weaker away performance. While Girona's away score average of 0.6 is lower, their xG of 0.72 suggests they have been somewhat unlucky and could improve. The bet on Girona is a strategic gamble based on Getafe’s recent struggles and the potential for Girona to capitalize on their chances.
