A Sports Betting Preview by Gladiator
Football: Spanish La Liga - Round 21
Estadio Municipal de Montilivi (Girona), Spain
Monday, 26th January 2026 - Kick Off 21:00 CET
Girona
Girona enter this round in far better spirits than they were a month ago. With four wins from their last five La Liga matches, they’ve finally built some momentum and climbed to a more respectable mid-table position. That said, nothing about their situation is comfortable: the cushion to the relegation zone is still small enough that a poor week could drag them right back into trouble.
Home form has been their biggest ally. Girona have lost just one of their last seven league matches at Montilivi, and their hard-fought 1-0 win over Osasuna last time out here showed they can grind out results even when not at their fluent best. Playing on a Monday also tends to suit them: they’ve won four of their last five home league fixtures held on this day. If they can start well, as they often do, having led at half-time in nine matches already this season, they’ll feel confident of controlling long spells of this contest.
Getafe
Getafe arrive in Girona in a worrying downward spiral. After collecting fewer points than any other side since the start of December, they’ve been dragged into the relegation picture and are now only narrowly above the bottom three. Their current six-match winless streak highlights how quickly their form has collapsed, and nothing they’ve shown recently suggests an immediate turnaround is guaranteed.
Yet, Getafe remain one of those stubborn teams that can be awkward to play against even when they’re struggling. They’ve rarely been blown away, and they tend to keep matches low in tempo and low in goals—especially away from home. Only three of their ten away league games this season have seen both teams score, largely because Getafe struggle to create chances but remain relatively disciplined without the ball. Their strong record in Monday fixtures (five wins from their last six league matches played on this day) at least gives them a psychological boost heading into this encounter.
Betting Verdict
Despite Girona’s recent uptick, this fixture has the feel of a tight, cagey battle. Getafe’s style naturally limits games and keeps scorelines close, and Girona, while in decent form, still lack the consistency to be trusted at short odds against teams who defend in numbers. With Getafe desperate for points and usually competitive in these low-margin fixtures, the handicap offers the best value.
Backing Getafe on the +0.5 Asian Handicap effectively covers both a win and a draw, and given Girona’s tendency to be dragged into grind-it-out matches, this angle looks the smartest route.
