The Spanish La Liga season continues on Monday 30th September 2024 as Villarreal host struggling Las Palmas at the Estadio de la Cerámica.
Coming into this game Villarreal are flying and looking to potentially break into the top 3 of the table. However Las Palmas will be keen to get their first victory of the season and break out of the relegation zone. This match is sure to be an interesting battle.
Villarreal Predicted Lineup - Diego Conde; Sergi Cardona, Eric Bailly, Logan Costa, Kiko Femenia; Alex Baena, Dani Parejo, Santi Comesana, Ilias Akhomach, Thierno Barry, Ayoze Perez
Villarreal are currently sat in 5th place in La Liga on 14 points after seven games. A win in this game will break them into the top four of the table guaranteed however if results go their way elsewhere they could even reach the top three of the league.
They have looked fantastic going forward this season having scored 14 goals - this the joint 3rd most in the league this season. However defensively they have been a shambles conceding 14 goals. Only 18th placed Real Valladolid have conceded more this season.
Las Palmas Predicted Lineup - Jasper Cillessen; Daley Sinkgraven, Alex Suarez, Juan Herzog, Viti Rozada; Kirian Rodriguez, Dario Essugo, Javi Munoz; Alberto Moleiro, Oliver McBurnie, Fabio Silva
Las Palmas have failed to win a game yet this season. This leaving them rock bottom of the league table on just three points.
Despite this they have proven they can score goals having managed eight goals already this campaign. This is the joint 5th most goals scored in La Liga this season so far. However, their main issue lies with conceding goals having let 13 past them this season already.
They cannot seem to get over the line in games thus why they haven’t won yet and sit in 20th place. Could this be a chance for them to change that though?
These two teams have only played one another on 16 occasions in their histories.
However it is Villarreal who have the advantage with eight wins to Las Palmas’ five. There have also been three draws in that time.
Despite this, Las Palmas have won each of the last two games against Villarreal. Both wins coming in the previous campaign. Can they do the same again here?
13th January 2024 - Las Palmas 3-0 Villarreal - Spanish La Liga
8th October 2023 - Villarreal 1-2 Las Palmas - Spanish La Liga
11th March 2018 - Las Palmas 0-2 Villarreal - Spanish La Liga
22nd October 2017 - Villarreal 4-0 Las Palmas - Spanish La Liga
17th March 2017 - Las Palmas 1-0 Villarreal - Spanish La Liga
On paper these two teams are very unevenly matched. This should be a simple win for a Villarreal side that are looking to break into the top three of the table. Potentially beginning a title charge.
However their defensive record as well as the scoring record of Las Palmas suggest that this game could have goals in it. If Villarreal are to win this game it may not be as easy as expected.
Nonetheless Villarreal should be victorious in this match.
