- Competition: La Liga
- Date: 6th April 2025
- Kick-off: 13:00 UK / 14:00 CEST
- Venue: Gran Canaria
Las Palmas will be looking to keep alive their hopes of extending their stay in the Spanish top flight at least for one more season when they play host to Real Sociedad this weekend.
The hosts narrowly avoided relegation on their return to La Liga last term, finishing just two places above the bottom three, but life in the top flight has been difficult for them this term. Diego Martínez Penas's side sit second from bottom and have managed just six wins this term. But with just one point separating them from safety, a win this weekend will be crucial.
Real Sociedad, meanwhile, have their sights set on the European places. They are well off the pace at the moment, with nine points separating them from the top six, but they were exceptional against Real Madrid in the 4-4 draw Copa del Rey semi-final in midweek.
Las Palmas vs Real Sociedad Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Matches between Las Palmas and Real Sociedad are renowned for being very close affairs. In each of the last four meetings, at least one team has failed to score and as many games ended with less than two goals scored.
Las Palmas have relied heavily on their defence to pick up points recently and I think that will also be a key factor this weekend. Los Amarillos have conceded under one goal in all but one of their last four encounters and none of those encounters produced more than two goals.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Las Palmas team news
Kirian Rodriguez has been battling lymphatic cancer since the first week of February, and the midfielder is not expected to be fit this weekend.
Jasper Cillessen is also out indefinitely after undergoing successful surgery on the injury he picked up against Celta Vigo last time out.
The goalkeeper's absence means that Dinko Horkaš will start in goal on Sunday and could be protected by a back five of Marmol, McKenna, Herzog, Bajcetic and Viti.

Real Sociedad team news
Real Sociedad head coach Imanol Alguacil will be without the services of Nayef Aguerd this weekend due to injury.
The West Ham loanee lasted just 27 minutes in the Copa del Rey clash with Real Madrid in midweek before being substituted, and the visitors have five other injury concerns.
Jon Pacheco, Brais Méndez, Sheraldo Becker, Arsen Zakharyan and Álvaro Odriozola are all out through injury.
