Prediction on Valencia vs Las Palmas
For the Valencia vs Las Palmas prediction, we say Valencia will win 2-0 this is why. Stretching back to pre-season, Valencia have won three and lost one of their last four matches including last weekend’s big 2-1 win at Sevilla. Hosting a newly-promoted side, Las Palmas, who could only score from the penalty spot as they drew 1-1 at home vs Mallorca, should be an easy win for them.
We also predict over 2.5 goals on Valencia vs Las Palmas and this is why. We are obviously going against the odds but three of Valencia’s last four matches ending with over 2.5 goals and Las Palmas struggling to keep clean sheets against good goalscoring sides is enough reason to anticipate the unexpectable.
Valencia got off to a winning start when they sealed a tight but big win over Sevilla away from home last weekend. They were decent in pre-season and and if they maintain the same Sevilla performance they are increasingly likely to extend their premature winning run to two matches in LaLiga.
Las Palmas did well to avoid starting their new campaign with a defeat when they held Mallorca to a 1-1 draw at home last weekend. However, they will try to avoid a defeat this weekend when they travel to Valencia.
