Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 78
Las Palmas wins: 9
Draws: 16
Real Madrid wins: 54
Real Madrid tend to fare well when they go toe-to-toe with Las Palmas, having won 54 of their 78 matches against the team from Gran Canaria.
The two sides went over five years without a head-to-head meeting before they recommenced battle at Bernabeu in September 2023. On that occasion, Carlo Ancelotti's charges recorded a 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Brahim Diaz and Joselu.
Another victory followed in January's reverse fixture, as Javi Munoz saw his opener cancelled out by Vinicius Junior before Aurelien Tchouameni netted an 84th-minute winner.
However, the two teams played out a 1-1 draw in the early stages of the 2024-25 campaign, with Vinicius on the scoresheet after Alberto Moleiro had sent Las Palmas ahead.
They had no such trouble in claiming three points in their most recent meeting in January 2025, with Kylian Mbappe netting a brace to fire his side to a 4-1 home victory, maintaining Real Madrid's unbeaten record in games with Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Real Madrid have managed to avoid defeat in each of their previous 10 head-to-head encounters, racking up 25 goals across that unbeaten run.
In fact, the reigning Spanish champions have not failed to register a goal against Las Palmas since suffering a 1-0 away defeat in March 1982.
From Las Palmas' perspective, they have not taken a point off Real Madrid in the capital since drawing 3-3 at Bernabeu in March 2017 - a game where they appeared to be on course for a surprise win until Cristiano Ronaldo netted a late brace.
Meanwhile, their most recent head-to-head win took place in October 2001 when they recorded a 4-2 home victory in a game where Real Madrid were reduced to 10 men following Pedro Munitis's 54th-minute red card.
Ruben Castro made full use of the numerical advantage, scoring in the 75th and 93rd minute to end Las Palmas' 15-year wait for a win over Real Madrid.
