The match between Barcelona and UD Las Palmas was a fascinating contest, with the away team pulling off a surprising victory despite being largely on the defensive. Barcelona dominated the attacking statistics, registering 8 shots on target compared to Las Palmas' 3, yet they only managed to find the net once. The high number of Barcelona's shots off target, amounting to 19, indicates a significant level of inefficiency in front of goal and perhaps overly aggressive or hurried shot selection from their forwards.

Las Palmas, on the other hand, maximized their limited opportunities with clinical precision. Both goals came from well-executed assists and pinpoint finishing, demonstrating their efficiency in front of goal. The first goal was crafted through the partnership of Kirian Rodriguez and Sandro Ramirez, who capitalized on a rare chance with excellent composure. Their second goal was orchestrated by Javier Munoz Jimenez's well-timed assist to Fabio Silva, highlighting Las Palmas’ ability to exploit weaknesses in Barcelona's defense.

In terms of set-plays and discipline, Barcelona’s 7 corner kicks and lack of yellow cards suggested a structured play, yet they failed to convert set-piece advantages into goals. Conversely, Las Palmas' victory wasn't influenced by corner kicks as they didn't secure any, but was rather the result of disciplined defending and tactical awareness, managing more offsides (5) which may indicate an active attempt to stretch Barcelona's defense through quick breaks. The higher foul count on the side of Las Palmas displayed their combative approach, likely disrupting Barcelona's rhythm, allowing them to counter effectively and seize crucial opportunities.
