As part of the ninth round of the Spanish Primera, Deportivo will host Levante. The guests are in the relegation zone, and the hosts are close to the European Cup zone. Which of the competitors will be able to score tournament points on October 16? The answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Deportivo La Coruna
Current form
Deportivo had a great start to the season and did not suffer a single defeat in the first five matches. For the first time, the club lost on September 16, losing to Sevilla (0:1). Then they managed to barely score one point with Betis (1-1), but after an international break, the team from La Coruna lost again. Antonio Hidalgo's team lost 0-3 to Real Sociedad, but the elimination of the opponent allowed them to win back two goals. Unfortunately, at the end of the match, the removal of Amatucci equalized the teams and the score could not be equalized.
Disqualifications and injuries
Amatucci is disqualified. Aubameyang, Casado and Eddahauri are injured.
Interesting betting trends
Both teams have scored in the last four matches of the hosts.
In the last six matches, the team has not won a single victory.
As expected, Levante was among the contenders for relegation from Primera from the very beginning. The club currently shares 17th place with Elche and has one match in reserve - the match with Athletic was postponed due to the weather. Levante scored their only victory of the season in a 5-2 home match against Betis. In the last three matches, the guests played against strong opponents and managed to score only one point. After defeats from Barcelona (2:4) and Villarreal (1:3), the team from Valencia miraculously saved a draw with Sevilla (3:3).
Disqualifications and injuries
Eyong, Primo and Sotelo will miss the match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
The team won the last two face-to-face matches against Deportivo
Both teams scored in each of the last three away matches.
Provisional squad: Ryan - Sanchez, Mundy, Dela, Tolyan - Brugi, Olasagasti, Rey, Garcia - Musuay, Romero
Deportivo has not won for more than a month, but the bookmakers still consider the hosts the favorite for the home match with Levante. We do not think that the guests should be written off: on Monday, the team from Valencia played a great game against Sevilla and avoided defeat, although they had to fight back twice. The hosts don't look as formidable as they did in the opening rounds. Key players, Aubameyang and Casado, have been eliminated due to injuries, while Amatucci is serving a suspension. We believe that the winless streak of the team from La Coruna will continue.
Our betting tip is that Levante will not lose in 1.75
Levante has not been known to play reliably defensively lately. In the last three matches, the guests conceded 10 goals. Deportivo, even without Aubameyang, must open the opponent's goal. At the same time, Levante, who is fighting for survival, will be as motivated as possible in attack and must score at least one goal. We will probably see a spectacular match with goals from both opponents.
Our betting tip is that both will score in 1.75
Betting on corners
Deportivo actively uses corners in their game. In the last round, the club submitted 10 corners, and 11 earlier in the round. Levante is much less likely to earn standards, so the visitors will surely concede in terms of the number of corners.
Our betting tip is an Asian head start (-1.5) on the corners at Deportivo in 1.92
