This is important given that the islanders spent the final part of last season's La Liga in free fall, going 14 games without a win (five draws and nine defeats), which ultimately cost García Pimiente his job after two long years at the club. This will give the encounter an extra twist today, with Pimienta now in charge of the opposition, and Luis Carrion tasked with ensuring that he has the worst debut of his career. However, the hosts last won at home in February this year.
Disqualifications and injuries
Viti (injury), Gonzalez (injury), Bicue (injury), Sinkgraven (muscle injury), Peyino (muscle injury) and Januzaj (muscle injury) will not be able to take to the pitch.
Interesting trends for betting
- Las Palmas have lost their last three home games
Luis Carrion will have to seriously tune up the team, because such terrible statistics leave a serious mark on any team
- New signing Oli McBurnie from Sheffield United has scored six goals in home games, all of which have ended with over 2.5 goals
The former England international is expected to have a lot of hope in the new season as Oli is not only capable of scoring but also leading the players, which is very important in modern football
- Luis Carrion has lost his first official matches in his last three clubs without scoring
This unpleasant streak must be broken at some point, especially since the game is at home and Sevilla does not have the strongest defensive line
Probable line-up : Sillersen - Munoz, Marmol, Alex Suarez, Marvin - Lioditseya, Rodriguez, Javier - Moleiro, McBurnie, Mata.

Sevilla

Current form
Sevilla finished just one point ahead of Las Palmas last season, suggesting another tense and nerve-wracking tournament for today's visitors. In addition, the change of coach was difficult, and while the hosts managed to hold off Liverpool in the last friendly, the Red and Whites were completely routed by Merseyside with a score of 1:4. In addition, the loss of the top scorer for three of the last four seasons, Youssef En-Nesyri, makes fans of the Andalusian club wonder where to get goals in the new championship. These concerns will only increase if you consider that the visitors lost their last two opening games of the season with the same score of 1:2.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of the game are Lokonga (muscle injury), Suso (knee injury) and Niguez (red card).
Interesting trends for betting
- Sevilla have won their last seven official head-to-head meetings
Such positive statistics may be deceptive, given the entire terrible La Liga tournament for the visitors last year.
- Five of the last seven head-to-head matches have ended with Sevilla winning by one goal
Most likely, this only proves that even in their best times, Las Palmas were a difficult opponent
- Dodi Lukebakio scored after the break both at home and away against Las Palmas last season
There is hope for the individual qualities of the players, who are the main hopes in the new championship. In addition, Dodi is the team leader, who is ready to take the game on himself.
Approximate lineup : Niland - Benawi, Nianzou, Martinez, Pedrosa - Bueno, Carmona, Collada - Lukebakio, Suso, Idumbo.
Trends

1.28Tip and bets
Today we expect open attacking football from two opponents who will have a serious battle for every tournament point. The visitors have serious problems in defense, which was proven by the results of the last matches, while Las Palmas has traditionally conceded at their home arena. We believe that there is a chance that the attack will play better than the defense line, which is what we will bet on.
Our prediction is that both teams will score and we are betting on it with odds of 1.95
Bet on the outcome
The statistics of head-to-head meetings are on the side of the visitors, while the hosts have serious personnel losses right from the first round, but there is a chance for several people to leave the infirmary right in the first round. In addition, we should not forget about the support of the stands and the huge tournament motivation of Las Palmas, who are not against starting on a positive note. We believe that it is worth paying attention to the possibility of a peaceful outcome, which could well suit everyone.
Prediction: draw for 3.25
Bet on a penalty
Most likely, the main events will take place away from the goal, which will ultimately bring maximum tension to the center. In addition, the class of the defensive players will allow them to play in their penalty area without fatal errors.
Betting Tip - penalty (no). This option can be found for 1.28
