Barcelona vs Las Palmas Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
League leaders are coming off a 3-0 win in the Champions League.
After a satisfactory win against Brest in the UEFA Champions League, FC Barcelona are set to host yet another side, this time its UD Las Palmas in LaLiga 2024-25. The stakes are very distant for both sides.
Hosts FC Barcelona drew against Celta Vigo in the last league match, after facing a sudden loss to Real Sociedad in the previous game. Now, despite having a dominating start, and defying all odds, the fears of bottling again are surely looking in the eyes of the fans. The Spanish giants continue to lead the table with an exceptional goal difference but have only a four-point gap with defending champions Real Madrid, who have played a game less.
UD Las Palmas have found form lately, having won only three of the 14 games in the last five. They are improving significantly, but the way Barca play ought to make them worry, especially for their leaky defence. A draw would also make them happy.
Kick-Off:
Saturday, November 30 at 06:30 PM IST
Location: Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, Barcelona, Catalonia.
Form
FC Barcelona (in all competitions): W-D-L-W-W
UD Las Palmas (in all competitions): L-W-L-W-W
Players to Watch:
Raphinha (FC Barcelona)
Captain Raphinha is doing some great wonders this season. His exceptional skills are at the best of display. His ability to control the midfield, and tear past the defenders to score quick goals has kept Barca at the forefront.
He has eight goals, eight assists in LaLiga, and five goals, two assists in the UEFA Champions League. More goals from him are expected here. If he manages to give more exceptional spells, especially assists, he will be the highest assist provider in the current league.
Jasper Cillessen (UD Las Palmas)
The former Barca keeper joined UD Las Palmas this season, as their first-choice. But so far it hasn’t been a pleasant spell. He played 12 games and missed two for a knee injury. In those 12, he conceded 20 goals. Yes, it wasn’t entirely his fault, he did make some saves but a cracky defence couldn’t help.
He needs to have his reflexes perfect to promote minimal damage, as if Barca attackers start shooting, which they have done on a heavy scale in the past few months, only a goalkeeper at his peak performance has managed to save them.
