La Union Deportivo are placed 13 th in the table, and by the looks of things, they have already ruled out getting into the playoff spots. With just a handful of games remaining till the end of the season, they have a lot of ground to cover.
They are also on a long winless run, and have been conceding goals in plenty in the process. Even at home they have not been able to showcase any kind of consistency this season.
Almost same is the case of the White and Red. They too are struggling to get through their tough schedule, and they too are dropping points in alarming numbers.
Moreover, previous h2h encounters over the years have witnessed countless goals as well.
By the looks of things, expect a goal-fest this Thursday.

Considering these observations, expect a high-scoring thriller this Thursday at Estadio de Gran Canaria.
