Deportivo vs Las Palmas: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from La Coruña returned to the Segunda at the start of last season and finished in a safe fifteenth place. This year, they have contended for direct promotion — only Racing managed to pull ahead of the other rivals. As a result, after last round’s match against Valladolid, they secured second place!
The team from the Canary Islands spent a couple of years in La Liga but finished second to last there last season. Back in the lower division, their results were inconsistent and rather mediocre. However, they improved in the spring, fighting for a place in the top six and a playoff spot. Thus, the 1-1 draw with Zaragoza in the last round was a setback, but not a critical one.
The promotion contender looks strong: scoring an average of 1.56 goals per game while conceding a third less — 1.02. The islanders have similar stats, though their football is less spectacular: 1.34 goals scored and 0.95 conceded on average.
