Team News

Las Palmas
Athletic Club
  • Alex Suarez returns from suspension but could face competition at left-back from Julian Araujo.
  • Pejino is back from injury and could play this weekend either out wide or as an impact sub.
  • Inigo Lekue returns for the visitors after nearly a month out injured, and could likely start against Las Palmas.
  • Both Dani Vivian and Nico Williams are available following their one-match bans and should both start on Sunday.
  • Yuri Berchiche and Ander Herrera are the only injury concerns for Athletic Club.

Prediction

  • Athletic Club make the long trip to face Las Palmas in Tenerife on Sunday, in aims to repeat their 1-0 victory at the San Mames in the reverse fixture - thwarting an exciting counter-attacking side through controlling all the possession.
  • Athletic Club, under Ernesto Valverde, have kept the most clean sheets in La Liga this season (13). Las Palmas, however, are an eccentric side under Garcia Pimienta, most recently featuring in a six-goal thriller with close competitors Getafe last weekend. They average the 4th most goals conceded in the league this season, whilst scoring seven in their last five matches.
  • Expect Athletic Club to come away with a narrow victory, here, despite the long trip overseas.
