Competition: La Liga
Market: Las Palmas double chance
Odds: 4/7 @ 1xBet
Looking to extend on their recent flurry when they return from November’s international break, Las Palmas will welcome Mallorca to Estadio Gran Canaria on Saturday evening.
Starting with the hosts, while Las Palmas might have endured a public struggle when opening up the new campaign, Diego Martinez’s men certainly claimed a crucial boost prior to November’s international break. Heading into the fortnight interval with a dominant display as they stormed their way to a 3-1 romp away at Rayo Vallecano, the Yellows have come skyrocketing out of the relegation zone. In fact, aside from a 2-0 loss against Spanish heavyweights Atletico Madrid earlier in the month, Las Palmas have won each of their other four domestic appearances across all competitions. With their recent purple patch underlined by an action-packed 3-2 win away at Valencia on October 21st, Martinez’s side will be relishing their return from November’s international break this weekend. Likewise, last seen at the Estadio Gran Canaria claiming a gritty 1-0 victory against Champions League outfit Girona, Las Palmas could be smelling a potential opportunity here.
As for the visitors, although Mallorca might mark their return batting it out in the top-half of the La Liga table, the Pirates are seeking some much-needed stability. Heading into November’s fortnight interval with a 1-0 loss at home against Atletico Madrid, Jagoba Arrasate’s men have collected just a single point from any of their previous three appearances. Opening November with another toothless display as they suffered a 1-0 defeat against Alaves, the Palma-based outfit have also shown some extended issues in the final third. Signing off October with a 0-0 stalemate against Athletic Bilbao, Mallorca have failed to record a single La Liga strike in almost 300 minutes of action. Now registering just a sole win from any of their last five showdowns against top flight opposition, Saturday’s guests could have another tricky test on their hands here. Given what was a recent gulf in class, we are backing a home double chance this weekend.
