OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Las Palmas's two home games in the La Liga 2 so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estadio de Gran Canaria.

The striker Cardona bested all others in that match and received a match rating of 7.61 out of 10. Cardona scored one goal.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Leganés form and stats

No La Liga 2 points yet away for Leganés, from their first 2 matches. Leganés seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Nyom and Arnáiz scored in Leganés's previous match, the home game against Eibar that ended 2-1. That win felt sweet as this side had gone five league matches without winning. Nyom, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.62. Nyom scored one goal, hit one key pass and won 3 of 5 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Lugo wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Leganés are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. From a total of 5 matches.

0 goals so far away for Leganés, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Las Palmas-Leganés H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Palmas three wins, Leganés five wins, two draws. five of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
