Sunday’s match will be the first head-to-head encounter between Las Palmas and Deportivo Alaves since 2018.
Levante are unbeaten in their last six games versus Las Palmas. However, the two sides have not played often in recent campaigns.
Levante are the in-form team in La Liga. The Frogs took 16 points from the last six games in the league.
They scored nine goals and conceded four times to their last six opponents. Five of Levante’s last six matches were wins.
The Frogs are playing well at home this season with four wins, one draw, and two losses. Levante are on a two-game winning streak at home.
Las Palmas are winless in their last three games in La Liga 2. They still took 10 points from the last 18 points on offer. Goals were hard to come by for Las Palmas in the last six matches.
La Union Deportiva scored just four times in the last six La Liga 2 matches. However, the defence conceded a mere four goals to opponents.
Las Palmas are playing well on the road with 12 points from seven games away from home. They are the second-best road team in the Segunda.
However, four of Las Palmas’ last six games away from home ended without victory.
There were under 2.5 goals scored in Las Palmas’s last seven games in the Segunda. Union Deportiva do not see many goals per game in the Segunda.
The Segunda Division does not see many goals per game. The league had 67% of matches finish with under 2.5 goals after 15 rounds.
The league also saw 59% of matches after 15 rounds finish with both teams not scoring goals.
The second-most common score in the Segunda is nil-nil, which occurred 16.36% of the time before round No 16 this weekend.
Levante are in form, and Las Palmas are one of the strongest away sides in the Segunda. Sunday’s game should be another low-scoring affair in the division.
Las Palmas have the second-most draws in the league with six. On Sunday, they should achieve their seventh draw as they finish nil-nil with Levante on the road.
