Girona vs Osasuna Prediction 10 January 2026
🔊 What will be the outcome when direct rivals in the battle for survival clash? This coming Saturday evening, Montivilli will host a heated showdown as Girona face off against Osasuna. Both sides have been inconsistent and are in desperate need of points to achieve their season objectives. This only heightens the intrigue surrounding their head-to-head encounter. The home-field advantage, along with several statistical insights, leads bookmakers to slightly favor Michel's squad.
Head-to-Head
📊 Osasuna have yet to secure a victory at Montilivi in La Liga, recording 2 draws and 3 losses. Last season, both teams capitalized on their home advantage: the red and whites triumphed on their turf with a 4-0 win, while the Pamplona side got their revenge at El Sadar with a 2-1 victory. Let's take a look at the average scoring rates for each team throughout their head-to-head encounters in Spain's top division: Girona average 2.17 goals, while Osasuna average 1.17.
Head-to-head statistics Girona - Osasuna
Girona Team Overview
⚪ Just when it seems Girona are finding their form, they suffer a disappointing defeat. This season, the "white and reds" have yet to secure back-to-back victories. This inconsistency highlights a lack of confidence among the players and a deficit in quality. Currently, Girona sit 17th in the league standings, just two points clear of the relegation zone. A troubling statistic is that Michel's squad has the worst defense in the league, conceding an average of 1.89 goals per game. Whether the club can withstand the attacking pressure in their upcoming match remains to be seen.
🔴 In the last round of the national championship, the "white and reds" achieved a crucial result, defeating Mallorca 2-1 away from home. This success was largely due to the contributions of the club's Ukrainian players, Viktor Tsygankov and Vladyslav Vanat. Both players scored their fourth goals of the current La Liga campaign, making them the team's top scorers. Notably, Michel is attempting to instill a more pragmatic style of play, with the 4-5-1 formation facilitating this approach. By crowding the midfield, they not only effectively counter opponent's attacks but also simplify transitions from defense to attack through short passes.

Osasuna Team Overview
🔴 The Reds are in the midst of an adaptation phase under Alessio Lisci's leadership. In his debut season, the Italian manager finds himself juggling the implementation of his tactical model while battling for survival. As a result, sometimes securing points takes precedence over tactical principles. Currently, Osasuna have climbed to 12th in the standings, but their cushion from the relegation zone is slim-just 3 points. It's more crucial to highlight the current form of the Reds-over their last 7 matches across all competitions, they've suffered only one defeat (to Barcelona - 0:2).
📌 It's no secret that Osasuna earn the majority of their points at home. In 9 away games, the Reds have only managed to add 2 points to their tally, failing to secure a single victory (the worst record in the league). In 2025, the Pamplona club celebrated just one away win in Spain's top division-a 3:2 triumph over Valladolid in April. This dismal statistic further underscores the impact of the El Sadar crowd on their beloved team's performance. Osasuna's main attacking threat this season in La Liga is Ante Budimir, who has netted 6 goals in 17 league appearances.

Latest news
Girona
📰 Let's highlight that Girona have named Viktor Tsygankov as their Player of the Month for December. The Ukrainian's standout performance was a memorable brace against Real Sociedad in San Sebastián, which ended the club's four-match winless streak across all competitions. The transfer market activity is intriguing at the moment. According to a respected insider, "Michel no longer counts on John Solis and Yaser Asprilla. Both players have failed to meet expectations and are already seeking new clubs. Marc-André ter Stegen's name was on the table, but the German has left Barcelona's training camp due to a minor injury. If his recovery takes more than a month, this move will lose its relevance."
❌ Among Girona's unavailable players for the upcoming match are Ricard Artero (ankle injury), Juan Carlos (knee injury), Azzedine Ounahi (calf injury), Portu (knee injury), and Donny van de Beek (Achilles injury).
Osasuna
🎤 In the last round of La Liga, Osasuna drew with Athletic (1-1). Here's what Alessio Lisci had to say after the match: "We wanted to win, but when you can't, you have to appreciate the draw because we played against a great team. We're still unbeaten, which is important. It's another point, and the fans can be very proud of the team's efforts. In the second half, we wanted to maintain the same approach as in the first half - be aggressive and push forward - but it was difficult to transition from a low block to a high one." The head coach also evaluated Xavi Galán's debut: "There were a few moments where you could tell he doesn't fully know his teammates yet, which is normal. But we're very pleased with his performance, both in attack and defense."
❌ Among Osasuna's unavailable players are Iker Benito (knee injury) and Flavien Boyomo (on international duty).
⚽ Goal Prediction
It's worth noting that neither club is renowned for their attacking prowess. Low scoring has been a theme for both Girona (averaging 0.9 goals per game) and Osasuna (1 goal per match) this season. Additionally, in 4 of Osasuna's last 5 matches, there have been no more than 2 goals scored. Therefore, a reasonable prediction would be to opt for under 2.5 total goals.
🚩 Corner Prediction
In Girona's last 8 matches, there have been no more than 10 corner kicks. A similar trend is evident in 8 of the last 9 head-to-head encounters. Currently, the average number of corners earned per match stands at: Girona - 4, Osasuna - 3.2. We suggest the following betting option - under 9.5 total corners.
Editorial Prediction
When considering the key bet, it's crucial to factor in Osasuna's performance in away matches. Alessio Lisci's squad struggles significantly on the road, failing to secure a win in nine matches. Meanwhile, Michel's team can count on home support this coming Saturday. Notably, the "Red and Whites" have never lost to the Pamplona side in La Liga at Montilivi Stadium. We predict a final score of 1-0, with the key bet being Girona to win with a handicap (0).
