Las Palmas - Girona predictions

Most online bookmakers don’t put see Las Palmas winning as a likely outcome, and we tend to agree. In fact, they are the clear underdogs compared to Girona, which is made quite clear with the 4.41 odds offered for a home win result.

Girona will have to maintain the high level of focus against Las Palmas. They can’t afford any mistakes and errors if they plan to run away home with three points in the bag.

Although Las Palmas are coming on the back of a harsh 4:1 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Celta de Vigo , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

The Saturday’s away team heads into this La Liga match on the back of a solid HT/FT home win (4:1) over Cádiz. It was a rather straightforward triumph during which Girona went ahead early on and never let their lead get in danger.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Las Palmas’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Girona’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Girona won a La Liga match against Las Palmas in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 1.83 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.27. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
