Sporting Gijon has shown a strong performance in their recent outings, and are considered favourites to take the three points. In contrast, Girona has struggled to find consistency in their performances.

Historically, the two teams have had closely contested matches with Sporting Gijon edging out slight advantages in their head-to-head records. Notably, the 2019-08-18 match ended in a draw and the most recent encounter on2022-05-15 resulted in a 2-1 victory for Sporting Gijon.
