7th position in the La Liga 2 table for Las Palmas right now, a fine showing. The home team followers hope for more glory as 11th-placed Burgos visit Estadio de Gran Canaria.

Insights:
  • Las Palmas have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Burgos have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Burgos have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2100 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.
