Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

Both sides have been massively struggling at the start of this 2024/25 La Liga campaign as they sit 19th and 20th in the standings. They have had issues in finding the back of the net and from keeping the ball out the back of their nets.

They also have a host of injuries so each manager will have a hard time choosing their starting 11s. Valencia have four unavailable players, and Las Palmas have one more with five.

Predicted Line-Up: Giorgi Mamardashvili; José Gayà (c), Christhian Mosquera, César Tárrega, Thierry Corriea; Hugo Guillamón, Pepelu; Luis Rioja, Javi Guerra, Sergi Canós; Hugo Duro

Valencia's 2024/25 La Liga season has been poor so far. After nine games, they find themselves struggling in 19th place, inside the relegation zone. One win, five losses and three draws has them on six points, just three ahead of their opponents in this match, Las Palmas. Valencia might have been dealt a bad hand having to face Barcelona on the opening day of the season, as well as Athletic Bilbao, Atlético Madrid and Villarreal in the opening five games.

Los Ches have had difficulties scoring with the club's current top scorer this season only achieving three goals. Hugo Duro is responsible for two of the astoundingly low five goals that they have scored this season. On the other hand, they have been letting in a lot of goals despite talented goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili. There is even more bad news for Valencia fans as they are currently missing 4 players that they could use to rely on to beat Las Palmas but they are out injured unfortunately. Mouctar Diakhaby is still suffering from the same terrible injury that he picked up in near the end of last season. Jaume Doménech, Jesús Vázquez and Rafa Mir are all unavailable through injuries of their own as well.

Predicted Line-Up: Dinko Horkas; Álex Muñoz, Juanma Herzog, Alex Suárez, Viti Rozada; Dário Essugo, Javi Muñoz; Alberto Moleiro, Fábio Silva, Adnan Januzaj; Oli McBurnie

After managing to stay in La Liga a year after their promotion, Las Palmas have not hit the ground running by any means. As of right now, they are in rock bottom of in the league standings and are the only team in the league without a win so far. They have picked up six losses and three draws, leaving them with just three points to their name. Las Palmas May not have achieved a win but they did manage to do what some might have thought of as impossible, grabbing a 1-1 draw against one of the biggest teams in the world in Real Madrid, three games into the season.

Sandro Ramírez has been a star man for Los Amarillos by finding the back of the net three times and providing an assist. However, it is looking like he might be unavailable for this important match against Valencia. Former Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie was brought into the club over the summer but is still yet to open his goal scoring account for the club so fans would absolutely love it if he could score in this match.

Final Prediction: Valencia vs Las Palmas

Valencia 1-0 Las Palmas

This match will not be a high scoring affair given the fact that Valencia have only bagged themselves five goals this season, but they do have to score in this one if they are to win. Hugo Duro has been carrying the Valencia attack on his back so far and we can see him doing that again in this match, potentially providing a goal contribution.
