Las Palmas - Villarreal predictions

Las Palmas will have to put on their best performance to record a home win against Villarreal. The price of 2.55 indicates a difficult battle and that’s exactly what we expect to see in this match.

Villarreal are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are 2.90 right now, which means the favourites are far from clear.

Las Palmas fans at Gran Canaria were elated when their team took the lead in the first half despite being up against much stronger opponents - Barcelona . The second half was somewhat more predictable, though, ending in a narrow 1:2 home loss for them.

Villarreal’s previous La Liga bout ended up with them playing from behind throughout, ultimately recording a 3:1 defeat. The odds were stacked against them from before kick-off, though. They were the clear underdogs in that matchup against Valencia, and couldn’t count on the support of their home fans either.

Only 1 or fewer goals were scored during the course of Las Palmas’s previous two away games. An Under marker might be worth considering here.

Villarreal’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 9 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

The Yellow Submarine are coming off of a string of sub-par results which landed them dangerously close the relegation zone. Moving up will require a lot of hard work, starting with the challenging showdown this Saturday.

The two teams already met this season in the La Liga, with Las Palmas taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

Before going for any betting predictions, we need to make note of the overall high number of prior injuries. Both sides have been hit: Éric Curbelo, Álvaro Lemos, Fabio Gonzalez, Marvin for the hosts, and Albiol, Álex Baena, Juan Foyth, Pedraza, Denis Suárez for the visitors. Needless to say, this may impact the teams’ performance.

A Double Chance wager on Home or Draw is probably the smartest way of going about things in this particular matchup. It’s still somewhat risky but should provide enough value at the odds of 1.45.
