After Las Palmas scored twice in quick succession, Johan Mojica restored their lead in stoppage time.
The visitors played Real Betis in their previous league outing last week and recorded a comfortable 4-2 home win. Hugo Duro bagged a brace, provided an assist, and was also at fault for an own goal. Their winning streak continued in the Copa del Rey earlier this week with a 1-0 triumph over Parla Escuela.
