Girona - Las Palmas predictions

Girona are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Las Palmas winning, though.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Las Palmas are given 5.50 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

The hosts have a chance to make amends for the Rayo Vallecano defeat from the previous round. It was another home game for Girona but it did not go the way fans had hoped for. Their team conceded early in the first half and did not get a chance to get back in the game which ended up with a single-goal deficit.

Las Palmas’s previous La Liga match ended with a home draw against Osasuna. The 1:1 outcome was better for Las Palmas than for their opponents, but fans are hoping for more decisive results in round 22.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Las Palmas have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the La Liga. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

With a favourable matchup like this, Girona seem likely to earn some points towards moving up on the La Liga table. They’ll need another 2 points to move up to a Europa League qualifying spot, though.

The first half of the season was far from ideal for Las Palmas, with them ending up as number 15th in the standings. On one hand, they still have time to work towards a satisfying end to the campaign. On the other, Girona present a major obstacle and wrestling away any points this Monday will be a challenge.

Earlier in the season, Girona lost an away game against Las Palmas, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 1.67 odds for a home win in mind.

Monday's match will see both teams at their strongest, with no players missing due to injury or suspension.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.85 at Pncl.
