Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Thursday’s football game between Las Palmas and Real Madrid will bring down the curtain on the La Liga round 3. La Union Deportiva aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Leganes, but they will have a mountain to climb against the star-studded champions. You should bear in mind that Las Palmas have suffered a loss in each of their last four meetings with the Spanish powerhouse. The likes of Januzaj, Pejino, and Gonzalez miss out with injuries for the home team.
Los Blancos, on the other hand, defeated Real Valladolid 3-0 on Kylian Mbappe’s debut at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Even though both Jude Bellingham and Eduardo Camavinga remain on the sidelines with injury, we are tempted to place our bets on Carlo Ancelotti’s troops as Las Palmas suit them. In their last meeting at Estadio de Gran Canaria Real Madrid defeated Las Palmas 2-1.
Highlighted Player (Kylian Mbappé):
Kylian Mbappe is a French footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain as a forward. The French rising star began his youth career at AS Bondy and in 2013 he moved to AS Monaco.

Speaking of his international career, Mbappe played an important role for France at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals, with the pacey rising star scoring a brace in a thrilling 4-3 win over Argentina in the last 16 of the showpiece tournament. The PSG attacker was born in Paris on December 20, 1998.
