Sevilla vs Las Palmas prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2025-05-12 19:30.
[p]The conclusion of this season could not come any quicker for Sevilla, who are seemingly limping to the end after their winless streak extended to eight games after a 3-2 loss to Celta Vigo at the weekend (D2, L6). That run has put them on track for their worst finish in La Liga since their last relegation in 1999/00, and should their demise continue, that unthinkable fate could yet repeat itself. [/p]
[p]JoaquĂn CaparrĂłsâ men finish the campaign with games against Real Madrid and top-five contenders Villarreal, so this game against bottom-three occupants Las Palmas carries a âsix-pointerâ feel to it for the hosts. They perhaps couldnât have hand-picked a better opponent then, as prior to a 2-2 draw in this seasonâs reverse fixture, Sevilla had won seven successive H2Hs, four of which came on home turf.[/p]
[p]Las Palmas didnât help their own survival cause at the weekend as they suffered a third consecutive league defeat when going down 1-0 at home to Rayo Vallecano. They reside inside the bottom three with three rounds of the season remaining, but with a favourable-looking fixture list across the remainder of the campaign, closing their season against three bottom-half sides, hope isnât lost just yet.[/p]
[p]There might not be much left to play for after this clash if they leave empty handed here, which is certainly a distinct possibility given Las Palmas have won just one of their last ten away matches (D3, L6). They neednât look to manager Diego MartĂnez for inspiration either, as he boasts a woeful record against Sevilla, losing four of his five prior managerial matchups (W1).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Sevilla desperately need top-scorer Dodi LukĂ©bakio to break his nine-game scoring drought, but patience may be required since his last four goalscoring appearances have seen him net the gameâs final goal after the 80th minute. Looking to down his former employers once again, Las Palmasâ Sandro RamĂrez haunted his ex-club with a goal in the reverse fixture. Heâs only scored more career goals against two other sides than he has against Sevilla (three).[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Sevilla have lost just one of their last 30 Tuesday-held domestic fixtures (W23, D6).[/p]
