Espanyol vs Las Palmas Preview and Team News
Espanyol Team News
Espanyol missed the opportunity to secure their stay in La Liga when they bowed down to Osasuna (0-2), with Raúl García and Ante Budimir scoring at El Sadar. This marked their fifth back-to-back defeat, including a derby loss against Barcelona (2-0) a week earlier.
As things stand, Espanyol could avoid relegation as long as they win against Las Palmas. The club are currently 17th in La Liga, two points ahead of 18th-placed Leganés.

Against Leganés, Espanyol squandered their chance in an epic 2-3 defeat, with the difference coming through an own goal. The team have not won a game since the 1-0 victory over Getafe, lacking the offensive edge, especially in the creative department.
Another factor contributing to their downfall in performance may have been the rumours linking Espanyol star Javi Puado to a move away from Cornellà. He has been their most important offensive playmaker. The player is yet to comment on the rumours.
Brian Oliván will be out due to an injury.

Las Palmas Team News
Just like their opponents, Las Palmas have lost five consecutive games. The only difference is that the visitors are relegation-bound while Espanyol can still fight for their right to stay.
Diego Martínez could not find a solution to his lack of offensive solutions, with Fabio Silva yet to return to the pitch. Without him, the squad have relied on Sandro Ramirez, who’s struggled to replicate Silva’s impact.
The side have also lacked in the defence, conceding at least one goal in their last ten matches. With their relegation confirmed, teams have started to approach several key players, including Mika Marmól, Fabio Silva and Alberto Moleiro.

Las Palmas lost to Sevilla 1-0, which led them to complain to the RFEF over the inclusion of defender Badé, whose injury allows an extra substitution. The club argued that Sevilla did not respect the protocol.
Fabio Silva and Kirian Rodriguez will be sidelined with injuries. Stefan Bajčetić is waiting for medical clearance.

Bet hereEspanyol vs Las Palmas Prediction
- Prediction: Espanyol to win
- Odds: 1.38 (22Bet)
- Score Prediction: Espanyol 2-0 Las Palmas
The hosts have not won in a month, but their drought should be over by Saturday night. They can count on the home advantage, as well as an excellent Joan García. One of the reasons Espanyol are not (yet) in the relegation zone is the performance of Joan García. His shot-stopping skills have repeatedly avoided defeats.
Since they will face a team that remains relegated and without Silva, a victory is their likely outcome.
Espanyol vs Las Palmas Betting Tip
- Pick: Javi Puado to score
- Odds: 2 (22Bet)
Javi Puado was the reason Espanyol ever got the promotion to La Liga, and he is (with Joan García), among the reasons they have not sunk deeper.
His creative flair, despite inconsistency, makes him an anchor in transitions. His impact in the final third cannot be understated, while players like Fernández have struggled to make an impact in recent weeks.
