Barcelona v Las Palmas Betting Preview – La Liga 1st October 3.15pm
Barcelona are won all six of their league games this season and that means they are already four points clear of second-placed Atletico Madrid and a whopping seven points clear already of reigning champions Real Madrid. So it’s all going well for them and they have another winnable match at the Nou Camp to head into on Saturday. They face Las Palmas who have lost four of their six league matches this season and will probably struggle mightily to get any chance out of the in-form Catalans.
Barcelona v Las Palmas Betting Tips
It has been a strong campaign from Barcelona so far then in the Spanish top flight this season and they are odds on favourites to pick up yet another win in this one. That will add to the six they have collected so far from their six games already. They have only conceded two goals so far this season and Barcelona to win to nil at bet365 brings a price of 20/21 which is good value for the game. So far at the Nou Camp in La Liga this season, Barcelona have beaten Real Betis, Espanyol and Eibar, totalling thirteen goals and just the one against. Barcelona to win by 3 or more goals at bet365 is a price of 4/7 just to highlight how easy this is expected to be for them. Barcelona won 3-0 at neighbour Girona last weekend but Lionel Messi wasn’t on the scoresheet as the visitor benefited from two own goals and a strike from Luis Suarez. Messi has seven goals in his last two league home games and is the 7/4 bet365 first goalscorer favourite for the game, while Luis Suarez is at 5/2.
This looks as if it will be pretty easy overall for Barcelona and they have winning form against Las Palmas to count on as well, being on a four match winning streak against them. Overall there have only been eight meetings between them and Barcelona hold a W6 D2 record against their opponents from that. Barcelona are W3 D1 in their last four at home against Las Palmas and won last season’s corresponding fixture 5-0. In the bet365 correct score market, the shortest priced option is a Barcelona 3-0 which fetches a price of 8/1 while a Barcelona 4-0 comes in at a quote of 15/2. Las Palmas haven’t produced a great deal this season with a W2 L4 record from their six outings in the Spanish top flight and they are on a two match losing streak. They have only hit the back of the net in half of their six matches and away from home, they have gone W1 L2, their success coming at Malaga. They have already been beaten by three of the current top four in La Liga this season and therefore it’s hard to see them getting much out of this.
