Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
All eyes will be on Estadio de Gran Canaria when Las Palmas and Mallorca face each other in the La Liga round 14. La Union Deportiva aim to build on a 3-1 win over Rayo Vallecano and a triumph over Mallorca should see them escape the danger zone. Manuel Fuster is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while both Enzo Loiodice and Adnan Januzaj remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Los Bermellones, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Deportivo Alaves and Atletico Madrid and given Las Palmas’ need for points, home win should definitely be considered. The likes of Takuma Asano, Ivan Cuellar, Valery Fernandez, and Antonio Latorre are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side, adding to their woes ahead of the trip to the Canary Islands.
Highlighted Team (Las Palmas):
Las Palmas are a Spanish football club based in the Canary Islands. The club was founded on 22 August, 1949. Los Amarillos play in Spanish La Liga and the team’s home ground is Estadio Gran Canaria. The stadium was opened in 2003 and it’s current capacity is 32,150. Miguel Angel Ramirez is the club’s chairman and the club’s main rivals are Tenerife.
Las Palmas impressed in the 2015/2016 La liga campaign, with the team finishing the season in 11th place in the standings. However, it has to be noted that los Amarillos finished the 1968/1969 Primera Division campaign in second place in the table, 11 points behind Spanish giants Real Madrid.
Speaking of Copa del Rey, Las Palmas made it to the final of the Spanish Cup in 1978. Las Palmas eliminated Sporting Gijon in the semis (5-3), but Barcelona outplayed los Amarillos in the title game (3-1).
