An important duel in the bottom section of the La Liga 2, with both Deportivo La Coruna and Racing Santander experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic \"six-pointer\" with the home team placed 22nd and the visitors in 21st place.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Copa Del Rey match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Unionistas de Salamanca.
Deportivo La Coruña form and stats
Deportivo La Coruña's struggle is real here at Riazor with only 10 points collected from 10 La Liga 2 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-4-4.
The home team returns to Riazor after being equal after 90 minutes with Unionistas de Salamanca on their last time out; the Copa Del Rey game ended 1-1. Before that match, a La Liga 2 win away at Numancia.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Deportivo La Coruña have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won 5 times, drawn 2 and lost 3.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the La Liga 2 game versus Cadiz in only three days. This game is also played here at Riazor.
The Deportivo La Coruña fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 10 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Deportivo La Coruña defense is not exactly impregnable. 16 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Racing Santander form and stats

Racing Santander only have 0 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 7 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 17 away games in a row.
