ℹ️ Team News: Deportivo de La Coruña

It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Deportivo de La Coruña boss Antonio Hidalgo to be concerned with thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Sergio Escudero (Muscle injury) won’t play.

✨ Prediction

Our thinking is that Atlético Madrid have the ability to have the majority of the possession and should turn some of their chances into goals.

Conversely, Deportivo de La Coruña will not find it easy to find success in front of goal, although we do see them converting at least once as well.

We’re predicting a 1-3 winning margin for Atlético Madrid when the referee blows the final whistle.
