Insights:
  • Ponferradina have the fewest points from losing position (2) in La Liga 2

Las Palmas 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.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Ponferradina have collected 28 points from their La Liga 2 home games so far after 7-7-2. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The supporters are hoping that Ponferradina will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the match against Mirandes (placed 16th). Midfielder Morán was the best player on the team with a rating of 6.85 (out of ten) in that game. Morán hit one key pass.

In the match before that, Ponferradina hosted Eibar and drew the game 2-2.
