Villarreal will be aiming for a second consecutive win in La Liga when they visit Las Palmas on Saturday evening.

Latest team news for Las Palmas vs Villarreal
Las Palmas will welcome Dario Essugo back to the squad after his suspension, but Jaime Mata is currently unavailable due to a yellow card he received as a substitute in the previous match against Girona.
Sandro Ramirez, Adnan Januzaj, and Marvin Park all had to undergo late fitness tests, while Jose Campana was absent due to a hamstring problem.
Essugo is expected to return to Las Palmas' midfield for this match, but his inclusion may be the only change, with striker Fabio Silva, on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers, expected to continue leading the attack.
On Villarreal's side, Alfonso Pedraza and Ilias Akhomach will be unavailable due to long-term knee injuries, but the visitors are in good physical condition for the match against Las Palmas.
Thierno Barry's goal from the bench against Real Valladolid could secure him a place in the attacking line, while also giving Perez, the team's top scorer this season, another starting spot.
Alex Baena was another impressive performer, scoring 5 goals and providing 5 assists in 21 appearances, and the Spaniard will feature on the left wing, while Willy Kambwala will retain his place in the center of the defense.
