Villarreal CF vs Las Palmas

Current streaks

Recent form

Villarreal CF

Villarreal CF's recent form showcases a mix of resilience and defensive vulnerability. The team has managed to secure four wins in their last six matches, including a current two-game winning streak, which has propelled them to fourth place in La Liga with 14 points from 7 games. Their offensive prowess is evident, scoring an impressive 12 goals in the last 6 games (2 goals per game average). However, their defense has been equally porous, conceding the same number of goals. This has led to some high-scoring encounters, most notably a thrilling 4-3 victory over RC Celta. The team's matches have been consistently entertaining, with both teams scoring in 100% of the games and over 2.5 goals occurring in 83% of them. Despite their attacking success, Villarreal's inability to keep a clean sheet in any of these games highlights an area for improvement as they look to maintain their position in the top four.

Las Palmas

Las Palmas is currently experiencing a challenging period, sitting at the bottom of the league table with just 3 points from 7 games. The team is on a winless streak of six matches, with their last four games resulting in two draws and four losses. Notably, Las Palmas has failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these games, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game while scoring only 1 goal per game themselves. The team's defensive struggles are evident, with both teams scoring in 83% of their recent matches. Their most recent game against Real Betis ended in a 1-1 draw, breaking a three-game losing streak. The highest-scoring game in this period was their 3-2 loss to Athletic Club, which also highlights their difficulties in securing points even when scoring multiple goals.

Recent home/away form

Villarreal CF

Villarreal CF's recent home form has been a rollercoaster of high-scoring encounters, with an impressive average of 5.5 goals per game across their last six matches. Notably, all six games saw both teams score and surpass the 2.5 goals mark, highlighting the team's offensive prowess but also defensive vulnerabilities. The Yellow Submarine has been involved in two particularly thrilling contests: a 4-3 victory against RC Celta and a 4-4 draw with Real Madrid, showcasing their ability to compete with top teams. However, their most recent home game resulted in a heavy 5-1 defeat to Barcelona, indicating inconsistency in their performances. Despite the mixed results, Villarreal's home games have been anything but dull, with the team scoring an average of 2.5 goals per game but also conceding 3 goals per game, resulting in a negative goal difference of -3 over this period.

Las Palmas

Las Palmas' away form has been dismal, with the team currently on a concerning five-game losing streak on the road. Their sole positive result in the last six away matches was a goalless draw against Cádiz. The team's offensive struggles are evident, having scored only 2 goals in their last 6 away games, averaging a mere 0.33 goals per game. Defensively, they've been vulnerable, conceding 10 goals in these matches, with a particularly heavy 3-0 defeat against Inter Milan in a friendly. Las Palmas has managed just one clean sheet in this period, and their goal difference of -8 highlights their overall struggles away from home. The team's poor form is reflected in their league position, sitting at 20th with only 3 points from 7 games, indicating significant challenges both at home and away.
