Sevilla vs Las Palmas Predictions

• Las Palmas have lost 10 of 17 away trips
• The visitors have the second-highest xG against on the road across La Liga
• The away side have suffered three defeats in four visits to the bottom six

Sevilla can close in on safety

Tuesday’s La Liga action is headlined by a massive game at the foot of the table, as 18th-placed Las Palmas head to a Sevilla side who are just six points above them. The visitors need a result to boost their survival hopes after losing three on the spin, but the hosts have a perfect chance to move towards safety.

Las Palmas won’t be happy to be playing such a vital game away from home, as they’ve lost 10 of 17 trips this season. Despite their poor away record, the visitors have actually been performing above their underlying numbers on their travels. Las Palmas have scored 19 and conceded 29 on the road, but their xG for is just 14.1 and their xG against is 35.4, the second-worst tally in the division.

Those numbers point to the issues Las Palmas have when it comes to creating chances and keeping opponents at bay, which is a concern in such a big game. The visitors have already lost key trips to three of their fellow bottom six sides, while Sevilla have lost only two of 13 home games against sides outside the top five.

Sevilla have struggled of late, but they can make the most of this opportunity to secure their top-flight status.
