As has become a trend against teams towards the bottom of La Liga, Barcelona had a tough time breaking down a low defensive block. Las Palmas played exactly like they did in their 2–1 win vs. Barça earlier in the season and the Blaugrana struggled mightily against a disciplined defense.

The Blaugrana are now unbeaten in 10 away matches in all competitions (W7 D3). It is the first time they have gone 10 games without losing on the road since a run of 15 between January and September 2

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick was slightly critical of his team's performance in a hard-fought 2-0 win at Las Palmas on Saturday and said they must continue improving despite sitting on top of the LaLiga standings.
