Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid
Spanish La Liga
Date: Wednesday, 26th April 2017
Kick off at 20:30 UK/ 21:30 CET
Venue: Estadio Municipal de Riazor.

It will be very interesting to see how Real Madrid will react after a painful defeat to Barcelona in El Clasico on Sunday evening at Santiago Bernabeu.

The visitors are clearly in a must-win situation because they can’t allow slip ups in the remaining six matches of the season if they want to lift the silverware in Primera Division.

Deportivo La Coruna

However, beating Deportivo La Coruna at Riazor will be everything but an easy task for the team led by Zinedine Zidane.

Deportivo lost only a single out of last six home matches in the league and they have been very tough to break down lately.

Real Madrid

Los Blancos could have decided the season with the potential victory over Blaugrana.

However, in spite of grabbing the lead in the first half through Casemiro, Real dropped points because they could not find the solution for Lionel Messi’s best performance of the season.

The main task for Zidane will be to refresh his team which has seven wins on the trot in all competitions away from the capital.

Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid: Head to head

Even though Depor used to be a tricky opponent for one of the moist famous teams in the world in some earlier times, Real Madrid have been absolutely dominant in the most recent history.

Los Blancos have eight straight wins in H2H meetings with Deportivo and most of these games saw at least three goals scored in total.

Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid: Prediction

The visitors have the imperative, they are much stronger of the two sides without doubts, and we expect them to bounce back and keep on with the impressive streak in head to head encounters with Depor.

The hosts need a couple of more points to secure the survival in the top flight of Spanish football, but they clearly can’t expect them in the match with the Champions League winners.
