Preview
Monday night in La Liga Las Palmas and Athletic Bilbao will be face to face in a very interesting and balanced competition, both teams are playing offensive football so there is potential for this to be a good match.
Las Palmas have not lost any of their last 10 games at home in La Liga so the Estadio de Gran Canaria is starting to feel like a bit of a fortress. This match takes place exactly one year after their 2-0 loss to Deportivo La Coruna last season. It is an important date since they have not lost at home in the league to anyone other than Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atleti. They are averaging 2 points per game at home this season, while the Athletic average of only 1.17 on their trips so the hosts are seen the most likely winners.

Athletic have lost 63% of their away games this season in all competitions so they have not really seemed comfortable in their travels. A trip to Gran Canaria has the feel of a European game as well, given that it is close to a 3-hour flight from the Basque Country and comes just 4 days after its Europa League game on Thursday so fatigue could also Be a problem for visitors.
So, in what seems to be close to play, there are some factors that could simply swing that way the hosts, who have been playing a very good football this term. Only 4 teams have scored more goals than them and with Athletic not totally convincing defensively, supporting Las Palmas 0.0 Asian Handicap in 9/10 seems to offer the best value here.
