Las Palmas vs Sporting Gijon
Football: Spanish La Liga
16th April 2016 – Kickoff time 18:15

Both sides were promoted at the start of the season and while their earlier target was for survival, it is Sporting Gijon who is currently in 18th spot. Las Palmas are in tenth spot in the La Liga so they are in less of a pressure. The visitors Sporting Gijon can take comfort at least that they are two points away from relegation. Las Palmas are on a three match winning streak at the moment, but Sporting Gijon only managed one win in their last three matches. When they met in the first part of the season, Sporting managed a 3-1 win.

Las Palmas were not given much hope at the start of La Liga since they had the smallest budget and they were just promoted to La Liga. But now as the season is coming to an end, Las Palmas is getting better and better plus they have secured their stay in La Liga for yet another season. They are on a good run now as in their last seven matches they managed six wins with their only defeat coming against Real Madrid.

Meanwhile Sporting Gijon had a good start to their season compared to Las Palmas, but as the season is coming to an end they are having problems with the team. They still do get the occasional win as they showed three rounds ago when they managed to beat Atletico Madrid by 2-1. They managed to get a draw with Levante which was a good result. However, they could not repeat this in the last match when they played against Celta Vigo. Now they are worried after the defeat as they are still battling to stay in La Liga another season.

Their coach Abelardo seldom makes changes to the side and is only forced to make changes such as when Vranjes as well as central defender Mere was not in the side against Atletico Madrid. In their last match they were unable to field Laura, and now Nacho Cases will miss out due to suspension. This means that Mascarell will start this match instead. Ndi is likely to replace P.Perez in midfield, while Bernardo, Menendez and Canella will miss out due to injuries.

Go for Sporting Gijon here and accept the 1/2 ball not to suffer a defeat in this match considering that they need the points more here then Las Palmas.
