Struggling Deportivo La Coruña will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Fuenlabrada in the upcoming league round. It’s 19th vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It's no vacation for neither Coruña nor Fuenlabrada as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Relegation threatens Coruña who should definitely be looking for some points here. Fuenlabrada is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
