Las Palmas vs Osasuna Prediction

Las Palmas come into this one on the back of a 4-1 defeat to Real Madrid at the Bernabeu last weekend in a game in which they did take an early lead. The Canary Islanders hadn’t won until mid-October before the appointment of Diego Martinez led to a major improvement that should see them finish comfortably in the middle-of-the-table. They face an Osasuna side that have been flying high at times in La Liga but results always seemed unsustainable with some fairly average performances and the Pamplona-based club are actually now winless in eight La Liga matches with Las Palmas the favourites for this one, especially with their home advantage.
