Atletico Madrid – Deportivo La Coruna

Match analysis

Atletico Madrid host Deportivo La Coruna in what promises to be a tightly contested clash, with the hosts perched just a point above the visitors in the league table. Atletico sit fourth with ten points from five games, having scored ten and conceded six, while Deportivo sit sixth on nine points, unbeaten but with a slightly lower goal tally of nine for and six against. Both sides have shown defensive solidity, yet Atletico’s three wins suggest they have the edge in converting chances.
