Command Analysis
Leganes
SpainCurrent form
Leganes missed the chance to celebrate their return to La Liga after a four-year absence with a win when a 79th-minute own goal saw them drop three points 1-1 at Osasuna last weekend. Despite the disappointing finish, manager Borja Jimenez hailed the result as “very positive” and the hosts now have a chance to extend their six-game unbeaten run in La Liga. History suggests that is possible, as the Pepineros have never lost a head-to-head in La Liga.
Disqualifications and injuries
Saenz, who has a shoulder injury, will not be able to take to the pitch.
Interesting trends for betting
- Los Pepineros are unbeaten in La Liga for six games
- Juan Cruz was the highest rated player when he opened the scoring for Leganes. It was the first time he had scored before the 45th minute for the club, with his other four strikes coming after that mark.
- Nine of the last 13 league meetings have ended goalless at half-time
Estimated line-up : Soriano - Lopez, Brsanac, Cisse, Cruz - de la Fuente, Garcia, Gonzalez, Guairo - Hernandez, Raba.
Las Palmas
SpainCurrent form
Las Palmas started the tournament with a draw, picking up a point when they came back twice from 2-2 down at Sevilla. Boss Luis Carrion said the draw was “more or less fair” but the club’s fans may soon tire of the result given it is their fourth straight La Liga stalemate. The problems are serious, however, given the visitors have not won in 15 matches since their last official victory in February.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gonzalez (injury), Peyino (muscle injury) and Januzaj (muscle injury) will not be able to take to the football field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Las Palmas have failed to score in their last three La Liga away games
- The Islanders have not been able to win for 15 consecutive Primera matches
- Sandro Ramirez fell just short of becoming the highest-rated player in the past, but he scored the last goal of the match to earn his team a point against Sevilla. Interestingly, three of his last four scoring games have ended in draws.
Probable line-up : Sillersen - Munoz, Marmol, Alex Suarez, Marvin - Lioditseya, Rodriguez, Javier - Moleiro, McBurnie, Mata.

1.28Tip and bets
Today we do not see a clear favorite in this duel - we expect an equal game. We expect the maximum concentration of events away from the goal, but we believe that the opponents are capable of breaking the protracted series of dry face-to-face matches and will exchange goals.
Our prediction is both will score and we are betting on it with odds of 2.20
Bet on the outcome
Today the rivals are equal in strength and motivation, because the start of the new championship is very important not so much from the tournament point of view, but from the moral one. The statistics of face-to-face meetings are approximately equal, while Leganes played very powerfully last year, which is expected from the team today. We suggest paying attention to the possibility of a peaceful outcome, which could well suit everyone.
Prediction: draw at 3.30
Bet on a penalty
Both clubs will likely compensate for their lack of technique through fouls and roughness, which will lead to an abundance of set pieces, including a penalty kick. In addition, penalties have been awarded in two of the last four matches.
Betting Tip - penalty (yes) for 2.85
