Both sides are delivering a fine season so far and fixtures like today could be decisive. Here's the preview for Albacete - Las Palmas!

Insights:
  • Las Palmas have the most clean sheets (19) in La Liga 2

Las Palmas have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Albacete have collected 29 points from their La Liga 2 home games so far after 8-5-3.

The Albacete coach Yáñez and his crew return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Real Zaragoza (placed 14th). Defender Alcedo got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.64/10. Alcedo served one assist, hit four key passes and won 8 of 15 duels.

Preceding that match was the home game against Granada that was lost 1-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Albacete perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Albacete as a small favourite), we find 10 games. Albacete has won 6 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

Not much happening? Looking at this club's last 12 league games, 9 have produced less than three goals (under 2.5).
