Team News
Las Palmas
Real Sociedad
- Summer signing Daley Sinkgraven was substituted in the first half in Las Palmas' 1-0 defeat to Valencia last week - Sergi Cardona should come in to replace him.
- Employing a 4-2-3-1 last week made Las Palmas more fluid in possession, but allowed Valencia to break their defensive lines much more easily. It is possible they will revert back to a 4-5-1 that earned them a point against Mallorca.
- That being said, García Pimienta is still working out how to best use star player captain Jonathan Viera this season, and could play him in a number of places in order to find a suitable rhythm.
- Real Sociedad's goalscoring problems were repeated again last week in a lacklustre 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo, Umar Sadiq came off the bench again, and looks fit, so this week may well get his chance in the starting eleven.
- Mikel Merino has been set back further with his foot injury, he will be out until mid September now.
- Ander Barrenetxea started over Mikel Oyarzabal against Celta and scored. He could start again as Oyarzabal is linked with a move away.
- Highly rated signing Arsen Zakharyan is registered and ready to make an appearance against Las Palmas on Friday
