Preview

Match preview

Second-placed Atletico Madrid welcome ninth-placed Deportivo La Coruna to the capital in round 10 of La Liga. The hosts have enjoyed an impressive campaign so far, taking 22 points from nine fixtures and remaining unbeaten on home soil with three wins and a draw. Despite missing Koke, Cristian Romero, and Lee Kang-In through muscle injuries, Diego Simeone's squad enters the contest in sharp form, having earned victories over Espanyol, Manchester United, Alaves, and Real Madrid in recent weeks.

Deportivo La Coruna travel south under difficult circumstances, sitting in mid-table with 11 points and currently winless across their last five matches in all competitions. Their defensive record is a major concern, having failed to record a single clean sheet across nine league fixtures this season while conceding an average of 1.8 goals per match away from home.

Adding to the visitors' challenge is a substantial injury list that includes leading goalscorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who has scored five league goals this season. Alongside Aubameyang, Deportivo will be without Nicolas Carrillo, Marc Casado, Zakaria Eddahchouri, Bamidele Ede, and Yeremay Hernandez, drastically weakening their depth and attacking threat at one of the league's toughest venues.

Confidence

Atletico Madrid possess a clear edge across form, table standing, and head-to-head history. The hosts have taken 10 points from a possible 12 at home, scoring 10 goals while conceding just three. Deportivo La Coruna have not kept a single clean sheet in nine league games this season, conceding 1.8 goals per away game. Furthermore, Deportivo are severely depleted by injuries to key players, most notably top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. With Atletico winning all four previous home meetings in the head-to-head sample and Deportivo winless across their last five matches, the home side is positioned strongly to secure the victory.
