Getafe vs Girona (La Liga): odds and picks 31.10.2025

This is an interesting match because of what it represents in terms of the dynamics of both teams. Getafe, solid and tough at home, faces Girona, which has been one of the negative surprises of the start of the league season. Two completely different styles: Bordalás’ pragmatism against Míchel’s possession and mobility football.

Getafe

The Madrid-based team is on a good run at home. They have picked up five points at the Coliseum and have only lost to Real Madrid this season, going down by the narrowest of margins (0-1) in a very Bordalás-esque match: order, intensity and efficiency in the few chances they created.

They are coming off a 0-1 win at San Mamés with a perfect performance: a game plan executed to perfection that saw them storm the Cathedral.

They are in a comfortable position in the table: tenth with 14 points. Four wins, two draws and four defeats.

In the Cup during the week, they won 11-0 in a routine match.

Girona

Girona are a bit more inconsistent than they were at the start of the season. They are currently bottom of the table, with only one win in ten games (Valencia at home) and are the team that has conceded the most goals in La Liga: 22.

They are not in good form, having conceded a last-minute goal against Oviedo and struggling to eliminate a third-division team in the Cup, needing extra time to do so.

What I expect from the match

The script seems clear: Girona will have the ball and attack, and Getafe will wait for their moment, closing down the lines and looking to run. The pitch and the dimensions of the Coliseum always make it difficult for teams that want to build from the back, so it would not be surprising to see Girona forced to play more directly.

Míchel will try to impose his rhythm, but Bordalás knows how to cut that kind of fluidity with tactical fouls and physical duels.

Key points of the match:

• First half hour: if Girona does not find the goal early, Getafe will grow from the pressure and set pieces.
• Set pieces: Getafe are one of the most dangerous teams from corners and free kicks.
• Equality: Last season, Getafe won 1-2 at Montilivi, and Girona did the same (0-1) at the Coliseum.

My predictions

BeniThe conservative one

Under 2.5 goals. Odds 1.50

Both teams are going through more tactical than explosive phases. Girona’s away average is down, and Getafe rarely plays in high-scoring matches. Probable scores: 1-0, 1-1, 0-1.

BetoThe bold one

Exact draw (1-1). Odds 6.00

Getafe specialises in scoring first and then slowing down the pace; Girona usually finds its goal through persistence. Neither team is in good defensive form. A slow-paced match with opportunities from set pieces.
