Latest football commentary on Las Palmas vs Valencia

Las Palmas are still making a strong effort in the relegation battle, having won two of their last three rounds – important results that help them maintain their hope of escaping the relegation zone at the end of the season.

Diego Martinez's team beat Getafe and Atletico Madrid before losing 0-1 at Athletic Bilbao in the last round. This defeat still prevents them from escaping the relegation zone.

Las Palmas are just two points behind 17th-placed Alaves, though, and a win against Valencia on Saturday would see them not only climb up the table but drag their opponents into a dangerous spiral – underscoring the importance of the upcoming game.

Remarkably, Las Palmas have won three of their last four meetings with Valencia in La Liga, including a 3-2 win at Mestalla earlier this season and a 2-0 win in the return leg of the 2023-24 season.

However, Los Amarillos' home form this season has been unimpressive, with only 17 points from 16 games. Valencia's away form has also been extremely poor, with only one win from 16 away games.

Valencia are on a very impressive run of form, unbeaten in eight consecutive La Liga games – including four wins – and their most recent defeat was a 0-3 defeat to Atletico Madrid at the end of February.

Carlos Corberan’s side have lost just one league game since the end of January, drawing back-to-back with Rayo Vallecano and Espanyol but still keeping a safe distance from the relegation zone.

Currently, Valencia has 39 points after 33 matches (9 wins, 12 draws, 12 losses), ranked 14th on the rankings and 7 points above the relegation zone with 5 rounds left in the season.

However, their away form has not improved, with just one win all season – alongside eight draws. Valencia have also not beaten Las Palmas away in La Liga since January 2002 – suggesting it will be quite a challenge for a resurgent side.
