Friday night football in Spain, with two struggling teams in the form of Las Palmas and Real Sociedad opening the 11th round of the Primera Division.
Las Palmas is tied with Levante for the last place in La Liga, both clubs having just 6 points in the first 10 rounds. For Las Palmas, the standing is mostly due to the recent form, as the home team clained just 1 point in the last 5 matches. However, the last two games showed an improvement for the hosts – a 0-0 home draw with Villarreal followed by a decent showing in a 3-1 loss at Bernabeu, against Real Madrid.
Real Sociedad isn`t doing much better, with the visitors gaining 4 points in the last two matches. The only win came two rounds ago at Levante, 4-0, but it did not provide much of a boost for Moyes’ side. Sociedad went on to lose 2-3 against Celta Vigo last round, at home, after leading 2-1 and suffering the deciding blow in the 90th minute. An unfortunate trend for Sociedad lately has been the leaky defense, as they conceded 8 goals in the last 3 matches.

Team news & lineups:
Alacaraz, Angel and Castellano will be unavailable for Las Palmas, while Real Sociedad won`t have Zaldua, Zurutuza, Navas and De La Bella in the lineup. Illaramendi is questionable.
Las Palmas: Varas – Simon, Aythami, Bigas, Garrido – Gomez, Hernan, Roque – El Zhar, Araujo, Viera
Sociedad: Rulli – Martinez, Gonzalez, Martinez, Yuri – Bergara, Illaramendi – Vela, Prieto, Bruma – Agirretxe
Both sides have been leaking a lot of goals both lately and overall in the season, while Real Sociedad is also scoring over 1 goal per game in average (and 6 in the last two matches). They should be able to find the net again against a rather poor Las Palmas team. However, the hosts played better football in the last two weeks and will likely keep it up today, as it is a very important match. Considering the way Real Sociedad is defending, I can see Las Palmas banging in a goal as well.
My tip here is both teams to score. Prediction: Las Palmas – Real Sociedad 2-1.
