Las Palmas form and stats

Las Palmas have performed here at Estadio de Gran Canaria this season with 8 wins from 13 La Liga 2 matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 3.

No payout for Palmas in their previous match, an away game at Castellón that ended in defeat 0-4. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against FC Cartagena.

As you see from the result above, Palmas suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Alejandro Díez Salomón for missing a penalty kick versus Castellón in the 90th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

The Las Palmas fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 13 matches. Palmas have conceded 13 in these home matches.
