Dep. La Coruna vs Espanyol Prediction & Betting tips
A duel even and without a clear favorite will be the one that Galicians and Catalans hold in Riazor. For this reason and knowing that they can be neutralized in the midfield, we believe that the best option to choose is a draw. Remember that Deportivo is not reliable in front of his people and that Espanyol knows how to stand in this condition thanks to his elegant and collective style.
Dep. La Coruna :
The Galician campaign has been negative by adding only 17 points in the table and placed in the penultimate position of the competition. He has added 1 draw in his last 5 presentations, losing 1-0 to Alavés last weekend (3 consecutive losses). It is still a militant but very irregular defensive area.
As a local in Riazor, Deportivo has added very bad results to add very few points in total (3 wins, 2 equalities and 7 falls, managing to score 13 goals and give 21 on his fence). It comes from losing 1-3 to Celta, from falling 1-2 against Valencia, from leveling 2-2 against Levante and from falling 0-1 against Betis.
Espanyol:
For anyone it is a secret that the team’s campaign has been very bad, to be located in the bottom of the table with 27 units in total. He has added 6 games without winning, being 9 of the descent (4 draws and 2 falls). Of course, despite these numbers, it is still a complicated eleven to overcome thanks to its collective and tactical style.
Playing away from Catalonia, Espanyol has registered not very encouraging markers for their aspirations, after winning 1 match, drawing another 5 and losing the remaining 5 that they played (10 goals scored and 20 transferred in their goal). It comes to equal 2-2 against Las Palmas, to beat 0-1 at Malaga, to lose 3-2 with Leganés and to draw 2-2 against Celta.
The last time they played both teams was in the first round and Espanyol won by a clear 4-1 home. In Riazor, they clashed in May 2017 and the victory also belonged to the “parakeets” for 1-2 (partial 0-2 victory in the first 45 ‘minutes of play).
