Las Palmas vs Betis Prediction 26 Sep 2024

⚽ LaLiga - Round 7 Preview

📅 26 Sep 2024

⏰ 18:00 GMT +1

🏟 Estadio de Gran Canaria (Las Palmas)

Las Palmas enter this Round 7 clash still seeking their first win of the season, having drawn twice and lost four times. Their 2-1 defeat to Osasuna extended their winless streak in La Liga to 20 games (D7, L13), pushing them dangerously close to matching Almería's league record of 31 winless matches. Despite a tough start for new boss Luis Carrión, he remains optimistic, calling the Osasuna match their “best away game so far,” while stressing the need to turn good performances into points soon.

Real Betis, on the other hand, provide an intriguing challenge. Historically, they have struggled at Estadio de Gran Canaria, winning just three of 23 top-flight visits (D5, L15), with their last victory dating back to 1988. However, under Manuel Pellegrini, Betis have become a solid top-seven side, consistently qualifying for Europe over the last four seasons. Although Betis have failed to score in their last three away league matches and conceded stoppage-time goals in their last two fixtures, they are likely to bounce back. A win against Getafe (2-1) was followed by a 2-1 defeat to Mallorca, leaving Betis with less than three days to prepare for this clash, potentially giving Las Palmas a physical edge.

💡 Las Palmas vs Betis Prediction

Despite Las Palmas' struggles this season, they may benefit from Betis’ fatigue and poor away form. Betis' defense has shown vulnerability in recent weeks, especially in stoppage time, which could present opportunities for the home side. A closely contested match is expected, with a 1-1 draw being a likely outcome.
