The action in La Liga this weekend kicks off on Friday, as Atletico Madrid will be searching for the victory that could send them to the top of the league standings. Las Palmas will be the hosts, as they look to cause a huge upset in the Spanish top-flight.
Atletico Madrid would have taken huge confidence from the manner in which they have started the new La Liga season. The Spanish giants currently sit third in the league standings, but they have an opportunity to move to the top of the La Liga standings with a victory this weekend, with their main rivals all playing later.
Atletico come into this fixture in electric form, as they have landed five straight victories in recent weeks. Meanwhile, they have landed eight wins across their previous ten matches this term. Their chances of moving to the summit are certainly aided by the fact that they have a game in hand over the sides around them in the standings. Atletico continued their winning sequence last Sunday, as they recorded a 2-1 home win against Alaves.
Many expected Las Palmas to struggle in La Liga this term, but they have made a reliable start to the new season after winning four of their opening eleven matches. That run of form sees the Spanish side sit tenth in the current standings, and they could move to within a point of the top six with a famous win on Friday.
Las Palmas have shown excellent form across their previous four matches, as they have recorded three victories. The most recent of those was a 2-1 win on the road against Almeria last weekend. Their winning goal in that match was netted by Sory Kaba in the 94th minute.
Atletico boasts a dominant record in this fixture, as they have won seven of the previous eight clashes between these sides. That includes victories in all six La Liga meetings between the sides since 2015. The latest of those was a 3-0 home success in January 2018.
Atletico’s record in this fixture looks challenging to overlook this weekend, despite the bright start to the season that Las Palmas have made. Therefore, we will be siding with an away victory in the Spanish top flight on Friday.
