Preview: Real Madrid vs Girona prediction, odds, where to watch, time | LaLiga 2025-26

The previous outing between these sides ended in a draw.

Real Madrid are now going to lock horns with Girona FC for their matchweek 31 fixture of the 2025-26 LaLiga. This is going to be an interesting outing, which is scheduled to take place at the Bernabeu.

Los Blancos are coming in after facing back-to-back defeats in their last two matches. They were outplayed by Bayern Munich in their first-leg quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League. The Alvaro Arbeloa-led side also lost their previous league outing against RCD Mallorca.

After two underwhelming performances, Real Madrid will now be looking to return to winning ways. They are in second place on the league table and are now seven points behind their fierce rivals, Barcelona. The hosts cannot afford to drop any more points.

Girona FC continue with their inconsistent run of performances. They are coming in after securing a 1-0 win against Villarreal. It was not their best effort, but they still managed to bag three important points. In their last away game, Blanquivermells fell prey to Osasuna because of a lacklustre performance.

With nine wins in 30 games, Míchel’s men are placed 12th on the LaLiga points table. They have only scored one goal in their last five matches against Los Blancos, making the next outing a tough one for them.

Players to Watch

Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)

The Frenchman was the sole goal scorer for Real Madrid in their previous clash against the Bavarians. It was not enough and they lost the fixture. He will once again be gearing up to help his side in the attacking front and is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence. Kylian Mbappe has scored 23 goals in 25 LaLiga matches this season.
