Deportivo La Coruna vs Alaves Prediction & Betting tips
The season is still nice, but we can already say that both Deportivo La Coruna and Alaves will have to put all sails in order to avoid degradation. In this regard, the mutual confrontation of Wednesday evening in the Riazor is an absolute key.
Deportivo La Coruna :
Dark clouds get together above the Riazor, because with only one point from the first four rounds, Deportivo La Coruna knows its worst competition start for decades. The team of trainer Pepe Mel does not bother at all and is extremely vulnerable in the conversion. Also defending a favorable result is usually asking for problems and in advance, the blue whites are handed over to individual actions by players like Cartabia or Andone. Deportivo La Coruna is playing without plan and is constantly struggling with the ball – five or six good passes in a row is actually too much for the blue whites. No, Deportivo fans are not at this time offended. Pepe Mel is doing his utmost to keep calm, but if there is not a lot of change at Deportivo La Coruna he can take his suitcases.
Deportivo La Coruna’s hope in scared days obviously listens to Lucas Perez’s name. The Arsenal league had to settle in a match roll in Real Sociedad and Real Betis matches since his return in Galicia, but he expects he will ultimately compete on Alaves on Wednesday. With three games in almost seven days, it is certainly not unthinkable that Pepe Mel will change his base team at multiple positions, even though he will certainly realize that his Riazor credit is almost over.
Probable setup: Pantilimon; Luisinho, Sidnei, Schär, Juanfran; Bruno Gama, Guilherme, Borges, Cartabia; Lucas Perez, Florin Andone
Alaves:
Luis Zubeldia was the first coach of the Primera Division to clear the field this season. The Argentine was appointed at Alaves this summer as successor to Pellegrino left to Southampton, but after almost four rounds of play, he is still unemployed. Former assistant Javier Cabello takes the honors to El Glorioso for the time being.
Personally, I have doubts if Alaves made sense to say goodbye to Zubeldia. You get a young coach who has never worked in Europe and then gives him a selection of newcomers, and you can not expect immediate results in my eyes. The results did not come with four defeats and even no goals, but you have to dare to either one or the other. Right now I see it gloomy for the Basques. First of all, I would not soon know who the new trainer should be, especially now that the intended successor Karanka has already thanked. Alaves will no doubt soon come up with a negative coach who wants to launch the club from the danger zone, while the club does not have the players at all. The differences in the right-hand rhythm are extremely small, and just the stupid decision to put Zubeldia on the streets would be Alaves’s fatal season this season.
Probable setup: Pacheco; Pedraza, Maripan, Ely, Vigaray; Pina, Manu Garcia; Burgui, Medran, Romero; Munir
