Las Palmas and Real Valladolid have met many times over the past few years, and the home side has usually come away with the win, both in the most recent meeting that finished 2-1 and in several earlier games decided by just a single goal. This time both teams are in a patch of unsettled form, making this a match where the pattern of play is more interesting than the head-to-head record. Las Palmas come into this at home with 10 scored and 11 conceded from 7 matches, but they have lost three of their last five, including a 2-3 defeat in their most recent outing. Real Valladolid arrive with a defence that has conceded 9 goals in 7 matches, and they won 3-1 in their last game, though before that they also lost 0-3. Neither side therefore comes in from a very different place. This game is likely to be a cagey affair early on, because Las Palmas hold slightly more of the ball, at 53.9% over their last 10 matches, while Real Valladolid look to wait for their moment and rely on the closing stages, when they often concede. The thing to watch after kick-off is the first spell when one side or the other gets control in midfield, because that will immediately show whether the game opens up into a trade of attacks or gets squeezed into something narrower.
