Espanyol Las Palmas betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 19^th position of the league, with 13 points won, after 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Sporting Gijón, by (3‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Real Betis, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 21 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 14 conceded. In their last match, for the Copa del Rey, they got an away tie against Real Sociedad by (1‑1). In the last 7 away league matches Las Palmas has a record of 2 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 2 points out of 21 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 7 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (3 out of 7 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 3 of the last 15 matches for the Primera División, they have reached half‑time in front in 2 of those 3 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Las Palmas is one of the weakest teams in La Liga and hasn’t got enough technical and tactical arguments to face most of this league’s teams. Moreover, they can’t count on Mubarak, Javi Castellano and Pedro Bigas, who are recovering from injuries. But they do count on Willian José, who is surely motivated, after having scored the winning goal in the last round near the end of the match (93’). Sergio Araújo is the striker, but he has had a few problems scoring lately.

Confirmed Lineup: Javi Varas, David Simón, Dani Castellano, Aythami Artiles, Roque Mesa, Hernán, Nauzet Alemán, Vicente Gómez, Momo, Sergio Araujo, Tana.
