Location of the Game: Gran Canaria Stadium, Spain.

How to Watch: ESPN+
The main goal for Las Palmas this term is to maintain their top-flight status. They have made a decent enough start to the new campaign on their return to La Liga, as they have picked up one point from two matches.
That gives them a La Liga ranking of 13th at this early stage. Their chances of survival this season will likely hinge on their home form. They made a pleasing enough return to the top flight in front of their fans, as they held Mallorca to a 1-1 draw on matchday one.
Positives would have also been taken from their previous outing, as they fell to a narrow 1-0 loss on the road against Valencia. Las Palmas defended excellently in that away match, as they limited the hosts to just 38% of the possession. However, they will need to be more proactive when they have the ball, as they managed just a single shot on target, despite dominating the possession.
There will be pressure on Real Sociedad this term as they look to build on an impressive finish in the top four last season. However, they have already struggled across their opening two matches this season, as they are yet to pick up maximum points.
Positives will still be taken based on the fact that they are yet to suffer a defeat. Sociedad picked up a second straight draw on matchday two as they settled for a 1-1 draw against Celta Vigo.
They only had themselves to blame in front of their home fans, as they allowed a 94th-minute equalizer to tie the match. It was the second game in a row that they had surrendered a lead in the final 15 minutes, and they will need to be more professional in the closing stages if they are to climb up the standings. However, of all teams in La Liga, this could be an ideal opponent to bounce back against this week.
Sociedad has a fine recent record in this fixture after winning on each of their previous two trips to Gran Canaria. They are heavily fancied in the Las Palmas vs Real Sociedad odds, and it may be testing to overlook their chances.
However, based on the La Liga odds available, it may be worth siding with the hosts on the spread to get the best value from the prices available on Friday.
- Pick: Las Palmas (+1) (-125)
