In a tough away match, Real Madrid will look for Kylian Mbappé first league goal for the club while visiting Las Palmas. Although Los Blancos have made an unbeaten start in the league, Mbappe has no aim to show that. The attack is still in good hands with so many options and Endrick coming off the bench, but the team will go as far as Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior can take them. With the expectation of winning everything in their path, Los Blancos are looking for more consistency.

Storylines
Las Palmas: It’s been a less than ideal start to the season for Las Palmas, who have conceded four goals in two games, and things won’t get any easier with Real Madrid coming to town. New striker Ollie McBurnie will be needed against Real Madrid’s defense, while Sandro Ramirez’s shots from outside the penalty area are something to look forward to.
Team: With Bellingham still sidelined with an injury, Arda Guler could be in line for a fresh start in the middle of the park for Madrid. The 19-year-old was bright in Real Madrid’s win over Valladolid and an appearance in games now will only help Los Blancos’ Champions League prospects.
Prediction
Although we are in for another slow start from Real Madrid, they will get the job done by putting three goals past Las Palmas. Choose: Las Palmas 0, Real Madrid 3
