Deportivo La Coruna vs Sevilla — Tips & Analysis

Sevilla +0.25: Deportivo are a hard team to beat, but they do not blow anyone away. They have won by 2 or more goals in only 3 of their last 13 games. They came up from the second tier, and five of their last ten results were earned down there. As a team they create very little, and one man is carrying them. Aubameyang has scored in all five of their league games since joining this summer. Sevilla have won 7 of their last 13 games and three of their last five. They score more than a goal a game and let in about the same. They also arrive fresher, with five days since their last game against Deportivo's three. That counts for something in a busy week. Six of Deportivo's thirteen games have finished with exactly two goals, so a tight, low-scoring night is the normal outcome at Riazor. A 1-1 is the likeliest score here, and a tie suits us. The caution is that Sevilla travel badly. They have won only 2 of their 6 away games and let in more than a goal a game on the road. Deportivo have also lost just 1 of their last 13 and will back themselves in front of their own crowd. We still make Sevilla the better side and expect them to come away with something.
