"Starting with the hosts, after losing their La Liga status last season, it is no secret that Las Palmas have their sights firmly set on booking an immediate top-flight return this time around. Despite signing off September with a 1-0 loss at the hands of Almeria, Luis Garcia's men have proven that toothless performance was nothing more than a minor blip."
"Getting October underway with an eye-catching 1-0 victory at home against Cadiz, Los Amarillos will be confident of extending on their impressive start to proceedings. Only shipping five goals in their nine Segunda appearances so far this season, Las Palmas's hold the best defensive tally among Spain's elite. Along with registering back-to-back Segunda clean sheets, it should also be highlighted that Sunday's hosts have shipped just a single strike in 360 minutes of action."
"Getting October underway with a worrying 1-0 loss away at Ceuta, Benat San Jose could have some mounting pressure on his shoulders. Missing out on what they had billed as a potential opportunity prior to October's international break as they had to settle for a 0-0 stalemate at home against Castellon, Sunday's guests have mustered just a single victory from any of their previous five Segunda outings."
Las Palmas aim for an immediate La Liga return and have lost just one of their previous six Segunda matches. The team opened October with a 1-0 home win over Cadiz and have conceded only five goals in nine league outings, registering back-to-back clean sheets and allowing a single goal across 360 minutes. Manager Luis Garcia benefits from a compact defensive unit. Eibar have managed only one victory in five league matches, drawing 0-0 with Castellon and suffering narrow defeats, and have lacked clinical finishing. A low-scoring outcome with no both-teams-to-score appears likely.
