Each team's starting lineup from their last match in this tournament is listed.
Las Palmas
The Canaries secured a 3-1 away victory over Rayo Vallecano in the last round. This was their third win in their last four league matches (with one loss against Atletico – 0-2). Thanks to these results, Diego Martinez's side has moved out of the relegation zone, distancing themselves by two points. Notably, the club has conceded 22 goals, with only Valladolid having a worse defensive record (25 goals).
- At least two goals have been scored in 12 of Las Palmas' last 14 La Liga games.
- Both teams have scored in 10 of the Canaries' last 14 La Liga matches.
- The second half ended in a draw in 6 of the club's previous 8 home league matches.
Mallorca
The Islanders have been winning and not scoring in three consecutive La Liga matches. During this series, the club played a goalless draw with Athletic and lost 0-1 to both Alavés and Atletico. As a result, Jagoba Arrasate's side has dropped to ninth place, but they are only two points behind the European competition spots. It is also worth noting that Mallorca's matches average 1.54 goals, which is the second-lowest scoring rate in La Liga.
- At least one team failed to score in the Islanders' last four La Liga matches.
- No more than two goals have been scored in 9 of Mallorca's last 13 league games.
- The number "1" appeared in the final score in 9 of the club's last 10 La Liga matches.
Las Palmas vs. Mallorca: Match Prediction
In the upcoming match, I give a slight edge to the visitors. Although the Canaries have won 3 of their last 4 league matches, I believe this is a temporary streak of luck since the club had gone 23 La Liga games without a win (8 draws and 15 losses) before this. Additionally, prior to their victory over Girona (1-0), Las Palmas had a 12-match winless streak at home in La Liga (6 draws and 6 losses).
Mallorca has secured 3 away wins this season, with an equal number of losses in La Liga. Furthermore, the team has scored in 8 of their last 10 away league matches. Jagoba Arrasate's side is capable of handling an opponent from the lower part of the table, especially since the Islanders' defense is one of the best in La Liga, with only Atletico Madrid conceding fewer goals.
My prediction – Mallorca with a handicap (0)
