Oviedo: confident attack and strong home results
Oviedo head into the match in decent form. In their last six games across all competitions, they have recorded three wins, two draws and one defeat. Their most impressive results came against Sporting (2-0), Eibar (3-1) and Ceuta (2-1). In the previous league round, the Asturians shared the points with Almeria (2-2), before drawing 3-3 with Numancia in the Copa del Rey and then losing the penalty shootout.
The hosts’ main advantage is their attacking output. Oviedo have scored at least twice in each of their last four matches in all competitions. In the league, the team have found the net 15 times in 11 rounds while conceding 12 goals. At home, the Asturians have lost just one of their last five matches, picking up two wins and two draws. Their strong record in home meetings with Las Palmas provides an additional confidence boost.
Las Palmas: inconsistent results and defensive problems
Las Palmas are going through a difficult spell this season. In their last six matches across all competitions, the team have managed just one win, suffered three defeats and played out two draws. After losses to Eibar (2-3), Mallorca (1-3) and Castellon (0-3), the Islanders beat Real Sociedad B (1-0). They then followed that up with a cup victory over Alcala (3-1) after extra time.
The visitors’ main problems are in defence. After 11 Segunda rounds, Las Palmas have conceded 19 goals while scoring 14. Their away record is particularly worrying: in league matches on the road, the team concede an average of 2.2 goals. At the same time, their attacking threat remains intact — the Islanders have scored at least once in each of their last 11 away matches in all competitions. This combination makes their games highly likely to produce goals.

Will Oviedo extend their home streak? Oviedo vs Las Palmas prediction
Oviedo look the stronger side thanks to their more consistent results and confident attacking play. The hosts regularly create dangerous chances, while their opponents’ defence makes too many mistakes, particularly away from home.
Nevertheless, Las Palmas are capable of finding the net. The visitors have scored consistently in away matches, so backing the Asturians to keep a clean sheet would be risky. We expect an entertaining, high-scoring game in which home advantage will prove decisive.
