A Sports Betting Pick by Gladiator
Football: Spanish La Liga - Round 25
Estadio de Gran Canaria (Las Palmas), Spain
Saturday, 22nd February 2025 - Kick Off 21:00 CET
Las Palmas
Las Palmas finds itself in deep trouble, hovering just above the relegation zone on goal difference after a miserable run of five losses in their last six La Liga outings.
While they have managed to score in all of those games, their defensive frailties have cost them valuable points.
Despite their struggles, Las Palmas will take confidence from their impressive record against Catalan sides, having won three of their last four such encounters, including a shocking 2-1 victory over Barcelona in the reverse fixture.
Barcelona
The Catalan giants are in red-hot form, unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions, and they enter this fixture determined to avenge their surprising loss to Las Palmas earlier in the season.
Prior to that defeat, Barcelona had gone 15 games unbeaten against the Canaries, further emphasising their historical dominance.
Hansi Flick’s men have been particularly dominant on the road, winning eight of their last 11 away games while averaging an almost impressive 3.5 goals per match.
The Betting Verdict
Despite Las Palmas’ tendency to find the net, facing a Barcelona side that has rediscovered its defensive solidity will be a tough challenge.
With the visitors pushing to maintain their title charge and eager to avoid another slip-up against Las Palmas, they are expected to control the game and limit the hosts' attacking opportunities.
A one-sided affair looks likely given Barcelona’s strong defensive performances and Las Palmas’ inconsistency, making “Both Teams to Score: No” the best value bet.
