The 2024-25 edition of LaLiga is back in action with another set of matches this week as Las Palmas take on Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis side in an important encounter at the Estadio Gran Canaria on Thursday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.
Las Palmas vs Real Betis Preview
Las Palmas are rooted to the bottom of the LaLiga standings and have struggled to impose themselves this season. The home side suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Osasuna last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Real Betis, on the other hand, are in 11th place in the league table and are yet to hit their stride this season. The Andalusian giants suffered a 2-1 defeat against Mallorca in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.

Las Palmas vs Real Betis Prediction
Real Betis have good players in their ranks but have largely failed to meet expectations this season. Vitor Roque and Giovani Lo Celso are yet to find their feet at the club and will look to make their mark this week.
Las Palmas have been in dismal form and are in desperate need of a resurgence. Real Betis are the better team and should be able to win this game.
