Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Villarreal and Las Palmas go head to head at Estadio de la Ceramica in the closing match of the La Liga round 8. Villarreal quickly bounced back from a heavy 5-1 loss to Barcelona, with the team beating Espanyol in a midweek clash, but they do not want to stop now. A man to watch in the home team will be former Real Betis attacker Ayoze Perez, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while veteran defender Raul Albiol has joined the likes of Yeremi Pino, Gerard Moreno, Juan Foyth, and Alfonso Pedraza in the recovery room.
La Union Deportiva, on the other hand, shared the spoils with Real Betis on Matchday 7, but given their difficulties on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the hosts. Sandro Ramirez limped off with injury in the last league fixture, with summer signing Oliver McBurnie likely to sneak into the starting eleven.
