Las Palmas vs UD Ibiza tips and predictions

Las Palmas to build on momentum

There are 6 points between the two sides as second place Las Palmas get set to host 14th place UD Ibiza.

The short price for the home side isn't great value but UD Ibiza are unlikely to have much ambition.

If their latest matches are an indication of what's to come Las Palmas have winning momentum on their side. The hosts have secured 8 home wins from their last 10 games. Having less success than expected the travelling side has flattered to deceive at times. They've lost 8 of their recent 10 matches on the road. Another defeat beckons for them here.

The home side's defence looks good under the spotlight. They'll see this as an opportunity to keep a clean sheet; they are only conceding an average of 0.6 goals over their last 16 games. While the hosts have looked secure at the back, the away side has lacked resistance under pressure in recent times. UD Ibiza have conceded two or more goals in 8 of their last 11 matches. And at certain times the visitors haven't enjoyed their best form. They've scored one or less goals in 13 of their last 15 matches.

Most observers believe that only one side is likely to score due to the favouritism for Las Palmas. The No BTTS could be sensible.
