Real Madrid will aim to keep pace in the La Liga title race when they host a troubling Las Palmas side they drew 1-1 against in their first league meeting, at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.
With Atletico Madrid pulling ahead at the summit, Carlo Ancelotti’s unconvincing men cannot afford any slip-ups. Meanwhile, Las Palmas, under Diego Martinez, are quietly climbing away from the relegation zone.
🤍Madrid Look to Extend Dominance at Home | Home Win = 1.17💵
Real Madrid have been imperious at the Bernabeu this season, boasting the league’s second-best home record with eight wins in nine matches, one fewer than Atletico Madrid, who lead this stat.
Despite a gruelling schedule that included 120 minutes of Copa del Rey football midweek, the hosts are determined to claim their 14th league win of the campaign to keep the pressure on their city rivals.
🟡Las Palmas Hope for a Historic Upset | Away Win = 11.00💵
Las Palmas travel to Madrid with improved form under Diego Martinez, winning eight of their last 13 matches.
Although they suffered two straight defeats recently, a 4-0 to Elche and a 2-1 defeat to Getafe, the visitors can draw confidence from their earlier 1-1 draw with Real Madrid this season.
Their ability to avoid defeat in four of their last five league games including a trip to Barca, which they won 2-1, highlights their resilience. However, a win at the Bernabeu, where they have never triumphed, remains an uphill task.
🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:
Real Madrid faces injury woes with Eduardo Camavinga the latest to hit the sick bay along with Carvajal and Militao. With key players like Vinicius Junior and Luka Modric also suspended, Jude Bellingham, Mbappe and Rodrygo will shoulder the creative and scoring burden.
Las Palmas will miss Daley Sinkgraven and Viti due to injuries, with Fabio Silva leading their attack despite missing a penalty last week. Adnan Januzaj could play a key role off the bench after scoring in their last match.
