The La Liga clash between Las Palmas and Real Madrid is set to take place on August 29th, 2024, as part of the third round of the 2024/25 season. Nowsport will analyze team news, likely line-ups, betting odds, and score predictions.
Analysis of Form: Las Palmas vs Real Madrid
After a disappointing start with a 1-1 draw against Mallorca, the La Liga champions delivered a strong performance with a 3-0 win over Real Valladolid.
Currently, Real Madrid is in 5th place with 4 points from 2 games, tied with Leganes, Osasuna, Atletico, and Rayo Vallecano. They are 2 points behind Celta Vigo and their fierce rivals, Barcelona. Additionally, Real is trailing the league leaders Villarreal by 3 points.
However, Villarreal has played one more match than Real Madrid. If Los Blancos win this round, they could level points with Villarreal and possibly take the top spot. This is quite feasible given that Real Madrid’s opponent this round is Las Palmas, who have only secured 1 point and are in poor form.
Las Palmas has won only 1 of their last 15 matches. At their home ground, Estadio Gran Canaria, they have won just 1 of their last 12 games. In their last 4 encounters with Real Madrid, Las Palmas has lost every time. Additionally, in their last 4 home matches against Real, Las Palmas has lost 3 and drawn 1.
On the other hand, Real Madrid has not lost in their last 10 away games in La Liga. With a squad full of stars and good momentum, Kylian Mbappe and his teammates are likely to continue their winning ways.
Team News: Las Palmas vs Real Madrid

Nowsport’s Score Prediction:
Given the current disparity in form—Las Palmas having won only 1 of their last 4 games compared to Real Madrid‘s 3 wins and 1 draw in the same period—and Las Palmas’ poor home record (1 win in their last 10 games), it is expected that Las Palmas will face another defeat at the Estadio Gran Canaria.
Prediction: 1-4
